Power coming back to Lake Forest Park
Saturday, November 23, 2024
I'm sure it doesn't feel like progress to people whose power has been out for more than two days, but crews have made great progress in Lake Forest park.
Most of the incidents on the map (copied at 12:45am) are one - 16 customers. The one large area has 469 customers.
City Light projects that all power will be restored by Saturday afternoon.
For the entire service area there are 1,327 customers without power, down from an initial 100k.
UPDATE: LFP readers verify that the map is inaccurate and easily twice as many customers are without power but do not show on the map.

9:30 a.m. Saturday: Lake Forest Park Update We estimate this work and repairs to other overhead equipment nearby will be completed and power can be restored to the majority of customers by early afternoon. Some additional work may be needed to restore all.

As someone in LFP still without power that map is wildly inaccurate.
Thank you for the update Diane! One additional piece of information: the map is incorrect. Another 400+ homes to the east of the area shown as without power are also still waiting for restoration. SCL acknowledged this mapping error on their Facebook page late yesterday after many of us called to alert them of the problem.
The problem with the map is that it doesn't include all the outages in LFP. The area around my house keeps getting removed from the map before I get power. And that happens when all my neighbors call too. We've had to report our outages multiple times. I hope our power comes back today,
Thank you both for the update on the map issues. They had acknowledged issues with the map early on - and then published an updated version. It is easier to use but apparently not accurate. Moral of the story is that if the map shows that you have power and you do not, report it. PSE is having the same problem
