💨💦That was a wild weather evening around the county and region as a whole. We fared quite well here in eastern Jefferson County, protected (in part) by our neighboring mountain range. At its peak we saw 2,605 customers without power, with the majority being part of one large outage. That outage was caused by large branches on lines which prompted our substation equipment to protect itself until they were cleared by PUD crews. Thank you all for staying safe out there and for reporting tree-line contacts to our team. It really does help!

Interesting storm note: We saw peak wind gusts of 61mph at Point Hudson multiple times around 7pm yesterday! ... See MoreSee Less
