We're closely monitoring this week’s weather forecast, which calls for stormy weather with widespread moderate to heavy rain and wind.

The National Weather Service has issued a Wind Advisory, Flood Warning, and Coastal Flood Advisory affecting different parts of our service area. Beyond the potential for power outages caused by high winds and saturated soil conditions, flooding and landslides may also impact our natural gas infrastructure.

We understand how difficult it is to be without power. Our teams are prepared to respond, 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.

Visit PSE’s Alerts and Advisories page for information on our response efforts: pse.com/alerts.

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.
