More than 5,000 homes were without power overnight in North Portland, according to Portland General Electric’s outage map.
After a week of downpours and strong winds, downed trees and equipment failures continue to plague the utility company’s power grid.
The North Portland outage was restored by 7:30 a.m.
As the region barrels into storm season, PGE encourages its customers to prepare outage kits of flashlights, extra batteries, car chargers and ready-to-eat food and water.
