Power’s Out, Office Is Closed

By Christine Weaver | October 28, 2019 | Mill Valley, CA |

As pretty much everyone in the entire country has heard on national news by now, the power’s out at Latitude 38’s headquarters in Mill Valley. (OK, so the mainstream news outlets didn’t get that specific, but pretty much all of Marin County is blacked out.) We’re posting this today from our Delta bureau. Other Latitude staffers have dispersed to San Francisco and Richmond in order to find power and Wi-Fi. Bottom line: The office is closed, and you may experience some delays if you try to reach us today. Another possible shutoff might affect us Tuesday night into Wednesday. PG&E might not even restore in between times. We appreciate your patience!

Later this week, our office will close at 4 p.m. on Thursday, October 31, for Halloween. It’s not that we all have parties to get to — it’s because we’re in a ‘Halloween neighborhood’ and the littlest goblins venture out and about on our narrow streets before 5 p.m.
