Power and weather behind internet outages in Spokane Valley

Avista customers averaged 152 minutes without power in 2024, across 0.96 interruptions each, against 624 minutes for Washington as a whole. Cable nodes and fiber cabinets run on batteries that last hours, not days, so a long power cut can take internet down even for homes whose own power has returned. See Spokane Valley power outages when both go out together.

Spokane County logged 105 storm reports since 2015, most often thunderstorm wind, flood, and hail. Reports peak in May. Power outages were named in 27 of those storm episodes. Wind, ice and flooding damage poles and buried lines, which is how a storm turns into an internet outage as well as a power outage.

Fiber reports reach 16% of Spokane Valley homes, cable 99.6% and copper lines 77.7%. Cable is the main wired technology here. One neighborhood node feeds many homes, so a node fault usually shows up as a whole street offline at once.
