Fire Weather Forecasted 

Due to current weather forecasts calling for strong thunderstorms, localized high winds and low humidities across the southern Puget Sound region, western Cascade foothills and Kittitas Valley, we will be turning on Enhanced Powerline Settings (EPS)  beginning Wednesday evening in these areas.

We’ve also added additional staffing for our first responders and our operations center. These settings will stay in place as long as high wildfire risk conditions are present.

EPS are designed to help keep you safe, but they may result in unplanned power outages. This is NOT a Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS), where we proactively turn off power in advance of severe weather.
