Parts of West Seattle were still dealing with storm damage after the wind, including downed wires on Avalon Way and other spots where utility crews had not yet arrived.

Seattle City Light was reporting more than 6,000 homes and businesses without power across its service area, including more than 15 smaller outages around West Seattle. Near 46th SW and SW Massachusetts, one outage affected 17 homes, and a North Admiral alley had a tree blocking the wires nearby.

The main safety concern was straightforward: treat any downed or sagging line as live, stay back, and wait for crews to clear the area. Cleanup can take longer where trees are tangled in lines or access is blocked.
