After the driest March on record, April brought with it a rainy day with wind gusts and a power outage that  16,463 City Light customers without juice as of about 3:50pm on Friday. Highline Medical Center was reportedly running on back up generators as City Light crews rushed to fix the damage caused by a car/pole collision on E. Marginal Way. They report that  several feeders are out. The car accident trapped two people near the Museum of Flight. 

The outage extended from roughly 106th SW on the north end down to Normandy Park and from the water up near Shorewood over to I-5 on the east.
