Fire Weather Forecasted

Hot, dry and windy conditions are forecasted for Lower Kittitas County on Tuesday, June 16, 2026.

As part of PSE’s wildfire safe operations, we will be turning on system settings in the affected area. These settings, which are more sensitive to potential hazards like a tree branch touching a power line, will stay in place as long as high wildfire risk conditions are present.

Enhanced Powerline Settings are designed to help keep you safe, but they may result in unplanned power outages. This is not a Public Safety Power Shutoff, where we proactively turn off power in advance of severe weather.

For more information or to report a power outage, visit PSE’s Outage map.

alert 

Safety first. Never touch or go within 35 feet of downed power lines because they might be energized. Call PSE at 1-888-225-5773 or 911 to report problems.

PSE customer alert:

Be aware of scams targeting utility consumers

PSE wants you to be aware of scammers and con artists who target utility consumers across the country by posing as utility representatives and demanding immediate payment of an “overdue” bill to avoid disconnection of your energy service.

What to know about scams:

  • We never ask or require you to purchase a prepaid debit card or pay via cash apps to avoid disconnection, even if you have a delinquent account.
  • You’ll receive several communications related to bill payment before any service disruption.
  • Our secure online payment portal is available only through pse.com or through the MyPSE app.

Recent scams include:

  • Scammers calling customers stating they have an overpayment, but need bank information to issue a refund. PSE will not ask for your bank information. Any refund will be credited to your account.
  • Scammers going door-to-door offering to restore power for a fee, or asking if your power is out. This is NOT something PSE workers would do.
  • Phone calls using “spoofing technology” that displays Puget Sound Energy’s name and phone number when they call to threaten disconnection of service—usually within 30 minutes—if immediate payment is not made with a prepaid debit or money card.
  • A caller, falsely claiming to be from Puget Sound Energy, leaves a message to call back a number, usually an unfamiliar 1-800 or area code number.

Protect yourself

Contact us and local authorities if you suspect or experience fraudulent activity.

PSE encourages customers to report scams and suspicious communications to the U.S. Federal Trade Commission and/or the Washington AG’s Office.
