A large portion of Fairfield saw their electrical service disrupted after a widespread power outage early Saturday morning.
The outage was reported just after 3 a.m., and impacted homes and businesses on both sides of Interstate 80.
An outage map on the website of Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) said the outage was caused by weather. The utility did not say when electrical service would be restored.
A storm system moving through Northern California brought brief periods of heavy rain and wind to Solano County from late Friday evening through early Saturday morning.
