Power Outage in Downtown San Diego: What You Need to Know

Hey, San Diego! If you’re downtown right now and feeling a bit in the dark—literally—you’re not alone. Over 5,300 residents in our vibrant downtown area are experiencing a power outage. But don’t worry; help is on the way!

According to San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E), the issue stems from an electrical problem at 701 Kettner Blvd. Crews are currently working hard to restore power, and they estimate that everything should be back up and running by 7 p.m. tonight. So if you're scrolling through your phone, looking for updates, you're in the right place.

This situation serves as a reminder of the importance of staying informed during community emergencies. Whether you’re hitting the books at a local café, attending meetings, or just enjoying a stroll through Balboa Park, being aware of your surroundings is key.

The downtown area has always thrived on its strong sense of community. As we face challenges like this, it’s crucial for us to stay connected. Make sure to check your phone and follow SDG&E’s official updates, as well as local news outlets that provide timely information.

If you've made plans this evening, you might want to adjust them a bit. If you rely heavily on electricity, whether for work or leisure, consider heading to other parts of the city that still have power. Golden Hill and surrounding neighborhoods are great options to explore while we wait for the lights to come back on downtown.

Remember, outages can sometimes lead to unexpected opportunities. Why not take this time to connect with family or friends? Maybe plan a small gathering at home if you have backup power, or simply enjoy some time outdoors. San Diego offers beautiful evenings, and a little time under the stars can do wonders for the soul.
