SEATTLE — Seattle City Light and Puget Sound Energy crews responded to a power outage that impacted over 3,000 customers in North Seattle earlier Monday.
The area with the biggest impact is around Ballard.
This comes on the heels of record-breaking heat on Monday. As of 12 p.m., temperatures are about 80 degrees and are expected to climb.
It’s unclear what caused the outage.
Seattle City Light estimated the restoration time to be around 2:20 p.m, but most customers were back on the grid as of 1 p.m.
If you feel hot, make sure to stay hydrated. Seek out cooler areas or spots that may have air conditioning like a library, movie theater or community center.
