As storms picked up along the West Coast on Sunday, more than 100,000 in the Puget Sound area lost power.
Just after 3 p.m. on Sunday, there were 440 active power outages affecting more than 74,000 customers, according to Puget Sound Energy. Seattle City Light reported 103 active power outages affecting an additional 42,200 people, with most of the outages — nearly 75% — reported in the city's northern end.
Available estimated restoration times and more information on the status of reported outages are listed at www.pse.com/outage/outage-map.
Power outages are possible through Monday, said Samantha Borth, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Seattle. Strong winds and thunderstorms are also expected along the coast through Monday, she said.
"Overall we got a number of systems still incoming," Borth said. "This system is pretty strong for today and tomorrow. Tuesday and throughout the next week looks wet. In general we have rain in the forecast for a little while."
High surf is expected along the coast with waves up to 30 feet, Borth said. There's also a chance of river flooding.
Trees have also fallen throughout the region causing road blocks. As of 3:30 p.m. Sunday, the Washington State Department of Transportation had reported seven instances of collapsed trees on roadways, including on westbound Interstate 90 east of Sunset Way.
