We’re monitoring a series of weather systems expected to bring gusty winds and stormy conditions to the region. We expect stormy weather conditions to persist for the next few weeks. With many trees still holding vegetation, these conditions may result in power outages.

We understand how difficult it is to be without power. Our teams are prepared, with additional staffing and crews ready to respond throughout the weekend, and crews will remain in the field to assess damage and restore power as long as it is safe. If your power goes out, we’ll work around the clock to restore it as quickly and safely as possible.

As we prepare for storm conditions, we encourage our customers to do the same:

  • Make sure to have emergency supplies at home and in your vehicle, such as extra batteries, flashlights, food and blankets.
  • Have a battery-powered radio ready to go.
  • Charge cell phones and mobile devices in case the power goes out.
  • Download the PSE mobile outage app to track and report outages or visit pse.com/outagemap.
  • Find more preparedness tips at pse.com/storm.

Sammamish - Juanita 115 kV transmission line

Project overview

The Sammamish – Juanita transmission line, completed and energized in December 2023, was a critical upgrade required to increase system capacity and reliability for more than 61,000 customers in Redmond and Kirkland.

This project added just over five miles of new and upgraded 115 kV transmission line, upgraded aging substation equipment and looped the Totem Substation so it is now connected to two transmission lines. If one line goes out, the other line will still feed the substation and provide power to customers.

This project ensured that PSE can continue to supply customers in Redmond and Kirkland with dependable power for years to come.
