UPDATE: West Seattle Junction power outage that affected some businesses as well as residents

11:21 AM: Seattle City Light is on the scene of a power outage affecting nearly 400 customers in The Junction – thanks to the reader who sent that photo along with one of several tips we just received about the outage.

According to the SCL map, this started a few hours ago. It’s affecting some businesses as well as residents; we just heard from Paper Boat Booksellers (4522 California SW), which says they’re out of power. We’re heading to The Junction to see who else is out.

11:39 AM: Before we even could get there, the power returned, reports Sharonn, who saw it happen while on the phone with us providing an update on who was affected.

11:49 AM: The SCL map hasn’t updated yet, so we’re not sure if that was a full or partial restoration.

12:10 PM: Map shows everyone’s back on.

    Any word on why the police with their lights on were in the junction around that time? They headed up the alley where Carmilias function was supposed to be. Then it appeared they were looking for someone here and there.

      There was a police response in Morgan Jct about then (more on that soon) but I am just back from Jct, including that alley, didn’t see/hear any SPD…
