A tweet issued by the media relations account of the utility provided the number and said there is no cause or restoration time currently.  Last night the utility said there were near 14,000 people without power countywide, though Altadena was not listed among the towns that were worst hit.

The utility's outage map lists outages centered around three areas: Lake Avenue around Farnsworth Park, near the intersection of Glenrose and Palm, and on Arroyo in West Altadena.

We have a call into Edison and will provide more information as it comes.
