UPDATE 3: Estimate of the number of customers affected has been reduced to 496.
UPDATE 4: 5:29 p.m. - Estimate of the number of customers affected has been bumped up to 1085.
UPDATE 5: 9:48 p.m. SCE is estimating the problem will be fixed by 2 a.m. tomorrow, with 454 customers affected.

can we not know who / how / why the power outage? As a small business, a power outage affects us dramatically
ReplyDeleteThe number of businesses/people affected is far greater than the number listed, if you take into consideration businesses outside of Monrovia attempting to coordinate work with a company in Monrovia. Monrovia has a power issues on a regular basis. I would not choose to locate there.
