Another power outage - this time in Shoreline


Another major power outage, this time in Shoreline, reportedly when a tree hit a major feeder line. Lights all the way to the end of the line flickered and the areas in red went out completely around 6:30pm on Friday.

One customer reported that the substation attempted to restart the power three times with the power running about half the voltage before it gave up and stayed off.

Midnight

As of midnight, most of the power was back, except for 250 customers in the Parkwood neighborhood and 620 in Lake City. Both of these were attributed to equipment failure and expected to be repaired by 1:30am.
