Southern California Edison is near completion in restoring power to customers in the Greater San Gabriel Valley who have been without service since hurricane-force winds hit last week.

As of 7 a.m., there were 2,332 customers in the Greater San Gabriel Valley area without service. The hardest hit areas were Altadena, Arcadia, La Cañada-Flintridge, Monrovia, South Pasadena, San Gabriel and Temple City.

Crews will continue to work around the clock to restore service until power has been restored to all customers. SCE wants to thank customers for their patience.

SCE crews have been working around the clock since the high winds hit on the night of Nov. 30. SCE set goals in restoring service to the 430,000 customers affected and missed some restoration targets in the hardest hit areas because of unforeseen damage and challenging weather conditions.

One of the complications SCE is facing is a safety concern. Where trees have taken out lines and poles, crews may be able to reconstruct poles, but trees may also have taken down the lines between poles and homes. SCE crews also need to repair those lines as part of the process of safely restoring power to individual customers.

Since Saturday, SCE has opened community outreach centers in the hardest hit areas where customers were provided with free basic supplies, including flashlights, water and ice. Two centers are open today in Temple City and Altadena.
