More than 21,000 in North Seattle without power

More than 21,900 Seattle City Light customers in North Seattle are without power Wednesday night, an outage that began as the day’s hot weather had cooled into the mid-70s.

The Seattle Fire Department received reports of smoke coming from an underground electric vault around 7:30 p.m. near Fremont Avenue North and North 107th Street, according to the Fire Department. No fire was reported.

City Light spokesperson Jenn Strang said crews had to disconnect power for customers beyond 107th Street to access the vault. There’s no current restoration timeline.
