update about today's unplanned power outage

Per SCE, service has been restored to many of the 3,500 customers that were affected by this unplanned incident – as of this moment (5:35 p.m.), 744 customers are still without power.  Service should be restored to all customers by 11 p.m. this evening. 

The cause of this incident was evidently a contractor’s unintentional dig into an underground service vault.
