UPDATE: More Cold Winds Expected in the Pass, Coachella Valley

Update 6:35 p.m. With continuing record cold across the U.S., the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power, San Diego Gas & Electric, Southern California Edison, and Southern California Gas Co. asked customers Monday to conserve energy, particularly natural gas.

"While there currently is not an imminent threat of disruption of natural gas service to residential and small commercial customers, the utilities are urging all customers to take precautionary conservation measures throughout this week," LADWP officials said in a joint statement.

"Conserving electricity is also urged because many local power plants are fueled by natural gas and less electricity used lessens demand on the gas supply."

Overnight lows Monday into Tuesday in the San Gorgonio Pass and Coachella Valley were expected to plunge into the 30s yet again, according to the National Weather Service.

Update 5 p.m. A gust of 60 miles per hour was recorded Monday at a Highland Springs location south-southeast of Beaumont, according to the National Weather Service.
