High winds on Friday knocked out power for nearly 4000 Seattle City Light customers in an area stretching from Burien to close to South Park. The outage began at 9:42am.
The southern edge of the outage is from 149th near Seahurst Park then along SW 144th PL extending east to 1st Ave. South in Burien then crossing Highway 509 near South 136th and then north in a swath and pockets up to near South Park.
City Light estimates restoration around 1pm.
