There’s been enough stories about the power outages in Washington and Oregon related to our recent winter weather. An explosion occurred at a switching station in Beaverton last night to, literally, add fuel to the fire. Repercussions from the disruption led to power outages stretching from surrounding areas, all the way to downtown’s Pearl District.
This picture, taken by a coworker was a view of the aftermath from our office’s parking lot. About as dramatic a sight for suburban Portland as you’ll find.
