Yesterday was a bad windstorm. Not as bad as 2015 or 2021, but significant. After it was done at noon yesterday, about 1/4 of Spokane was powerless. Avista got to work, and this morning ALL of those outages are fixed. The map has a few brand-new outages, probably trees that were leaning after yesterday and finally fell.
I got lucky. Last week an ordinary windstorm knocked out power for this row of houses, the only outage in this part of town. Avista fixed it in two hours. This week the same row of houses along Driscoll was almost the only NONoutage in this part of town.
