Thousands of Long Beach customers of Southern California Edison remained without power Monday in coastal neighborhoods, but an end to the outage was in sight.<\/p>\n
The outage was reported at 6:40 p.m. Sunday and boundaries were west of Quincy Avenue, east of Alamitos Avenue, north of Ocean Boulevard and south of Seventh Street.<\/p>\n
Various media reported more than 26,000 customers were initially without power.<\/p>\n
As of 1:35 a.m. Monday, Edison reported that a field investigator had determined the necessary repairs and a repair crew was on the way. Edison also reported that 16,456 customers remained without power.<\/p>\n
At 3:28 a.m., SCE estimated that power would be restored by 8 a.m. Monday. But that was extended to 12 p.m. just after 6 a.m.<\/p>\n
The Long Beach Post reported that the blackout was caused when an underground electrical vault caught fire on Broadway near Newport Avenue near the Bluff Heights Neighborhood. Edison subsequently de-energized the line.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Thousands of Long Beach customers of Southern California Edison remained without power Monday in coastal neighborhoods, but an…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":31138,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[174,4843,27653,131,133,132,4840,428,1093],"class_list":["post-442057","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-long-beach","tag-beach","tag-customers","tag-edison","tag-long-beach","tag-long-beach-headlines","tag-long-beach-news","tag-power","tag-start","tag-thousands"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/442057","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=442057"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/442057\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/31138"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=442057"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=442057"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=442057"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
