SF 49ers star George Kittle among Bay Area residents without power

You can add 49ers star George Kittle to the thousands of Bay Area residents who have been without power during the recent storms that pummeled much of the state this week.

Thursday night, the 49ers tight end sent out a tweet saying he’d been without electricity for four days.

Yo @PGE4Me I’ve been without power going on 4 days. A lil help would be appreciated thanks. Just trying to prepare for something this weekend

“Yo @PGE4Me I’ve been without power going on 4 days. A lil help would be appreciated thanks. Just trying to prepare for something this weekend,” Kittle tweeted, referring the 49ers’ NFC first-round playoff game against the Seattle Seahawks on Saturday at Levi’s Stadium.

Kittle followed up that tweet by posting a gif of Fred Flinstone rubbing two sticks together with the caption, “Me right now.”

It’s been estimated that more than 100,000 PG&E customers in the Bay Area suffered outages this week because of downed trees and downed power lines.

If you lost power, or like Kittle will hopefully be getting it restored soon, here are some tips for what to do when the electricity comes back on.
