According to the outage map on SDGE's website, power was expected to be restored by 3:30 p.m. Thursday.
SDGE also reported an outage for 294 customers in the communities of Boulevard, Jacumba, and Live Oak Springs, and 98 customers in the communities of Campo, Dulzura, and Potrero, with the cause also undetermined.
