Several thousand customers were without power Saturday night as strong winds and heavy rain swept through western Washington.
About 14,000 customers were still without power Sunday morning after a powerful fall storm brought down trees and power lines in the area Saturday night. Crews worked through the night to restore power to thousands and the number of customers affected continues to go down.
As of 10:30 p.m. Saturday, about 33,000 customers were without power mostly in south and West Seattle, according to the Seattle Public Utilities (SPU) outage map.

SPU originally reported 42,000 customers without power just after 9 p.m. when the storm started to pick up, mostly concentrated in the south Seattle, West Seattle, and Burien areas.
As of 10:30 p.m. Saturday, Tacoma Public Utilities was only reporting just over 3,500 customers without power. That number dropped to fewer than 100 customers by Sunday morning. See the latest outage map for Tacoma here.
A series of systems is bringing rounds of soaking rain to the region throughout this weekend and into next week.
SPU has prepared for some roadway flooding and ponding as fallen leaves and rushing rainwater create a hazard. Drivers should use caution.
SPU is urging homeowners to rake up leaves now to help prevent clogged drains and bigger problems later.
