Tumalo, Bend-area power outage leaves 2,100 Central Electric Co-Op members in the dark – Costco as well
TUMALO, Ore. (KTVZ) – A power outage in the Tumalo area hit about 2,100 Central Electric Cooperative members Tuesday afternoon and extended into the Bend area as well, leaving the new Costco warehouse store in the dark.
CEC said in an online post around 1:30 p.m. that crews were en route and the cause of the outage had not been confirmed.
An “estimated time for power restoration is unknown,” officials said.
A Costco shopper indicated new customers were not being allowed in during the outage, and those inside when it went dark were being checked out.
