Pacific Power prepared to respond to outages ahead of forecast storms

Customers encouraged to prepare for possibility of outages

HOOD RIVER, Ore. (May 28, 2026) — Pacific Power is monitoring a significant storm system that could bring high winds, lightning and hail to central and eastern Oregon and Washington Thursday night.

Pacific Power’s meteorology team is closely monitoring the approaching storm and crews are ready to respond to any weather-related outages.

Pacific Power encourages customers to always be prepared for outages and supports state and local emergency management organizations, who recommend Oregonians have an emergency plan for up to 72 hours without essential services.

Here are some simple steps customers can take to prepare and stay informed:

Update your contact information so we can reach you.

Sign up to receive outage alerts by text, email or phone.

Restock your outage kit.

Keep mobile devices charged so that they may be used in an emergency.

Track outages, update contact info and do more with our free app.

Text OUT to 722797 to report your outage or STAT to check status.

Visit PacificPower.net/Outages for restoration estimates.

As a reminder, stay away from all downed power lines and utility lines. Even if the lines are not sparking, they could be energized and extremely dangerous. Customers should avoid both downed trees and powerlines as well as keep pets far away from those areas. Call 911 and report the outage to Pacific Power at 1-877-508-5088.
