Monday Storm Updates

1:15 PM Update:

According to the PUD Outage Map there are just over 30,000 people still without power across Snohomish County. In Everett it looks like around 2000 still without power. We’re trying to get more specific information on restoration efforts and also an estimate of damage caused. Not sure when our inquiries will be answered. The PUD is working on restoring circuits and that takes more time. They did provide this estimate. The remaining outages get more complicated and will take longer to repair, but we think we should have 90% of people back in power by 8 p.m. Monday. We will not stop working until power is back on for all.

Here’s a report from Everett Fire on some of the incidents they responded to over the weekend.
