Here’s to this being the last “Outage Update.”
Nearly 3 dozen outage reports in the Ferndale area remain on Puget Sound Energy’s list to deal with. These affect just under 1,000 PSE customer addresses in the Ferndale area, some now going on the fourth day without power. According to PSE, over 11,000 remain without power around the Puget Sound area.
This morning PSE estimated power would be restored to every Whatcom County customer by 11:59pm today, September 1st.
Three Ferndale schools without power yesterday now have power. They are Eagleridge Elementary, Horizon Middle School and Windward High School. Today’s Ferndale schools events will be held as scheduled.
