The Daily Everett team
If you lost power Saturday night, you had plenty of company. The Seattle Times reports that more than 80,000 customers across Western Washington lost power amid the rain and heavy winds. By Sunday morning, at least 30,000 households in the Puget Sound region were still without power. Snohomish PUD said about 950 of its customers still lacked power.

Leaves can quickly clog storm drains, so we suggest watching for standing water when the rain comes down hard.
