STORM CAUSES POWER OUTAGES IN BETHESDA

Cancelling tonight's outdoor movie at Bethesda Row turned out to be the right call. A couple of thunderstorms passed through Bethesda early this evening, and have left several small power outages behind.

Neighborhoods in the dark include one near Bradley Boulevard and Wilson Lane (Pepco estimates restoration by 5:00 AM tomorrow morning), Wildwood Hills near Democracy Boulevard (11:00 AM Wednesday), and Seven Locks Road near Tuckerman Lane (1:00 PM Wednesday).

The largest outage, near Garrett Park, appears to have been restored according to the Pepco outage map.
