According to Seattle City Light, power went out at around 9:30 a.m. Saturday morning for 156 buildings in Lower Queen Anne, including the entire Seattle Center campus as well as surrounding homes and businesses.
Power was returned to most affected within 30 minutes of the outage, and crews were able to restore service to all remaining buildings by 1:30 p.m. this afternoon. According to City Light,
The cause of the outage was a failed cable splice. Crews routed power around the bad section to restore power and will work on replacing the bad section of cable over the next several days.
