Power outage blamed on bird - again

On Friday, July 1, 2011, there was a power outage in Shoreline, Lake Forest Park, and North Seattle that caused 2,500 City Light customers to lose electricity. Power went out about 5:30 a.m. and was fully restored as of 7:25 a.m.

For the second time this year, crews discovered a bird had caused a short in a wire which tripped a circuit which shut off the power.

The rough boundaries were:
  • North: NE Perkins Way
  • South: NE 125th Street
  • West: Meridian Avenue
  • East: 35th Avenue NE
