Update at 6:05 p.m. — The number of outages in Arlington is now down to just 67, according to Dominion.
Earlier: More than 2,000 Dominion customers are still without power after two strong storms knocked down trees and power lines Sunday.
As of 9:45 a.m. the utility company reported 2,084 customers in the dark, down from 8,295 outages immediately following the second of yesterday’s storms.
The outages are scattered across the county but mostly in south Arlington. Among the largest of the remaining outages are in the Aurora Highlands and Columbia Forest neighborhoods.
Dominion’s power outage map currently lists the estimated restoration time as between 9 p.m. and 2 a.m. tonight.
The utility company has been struggling to restore power due to widespread damage from the storms. Currently Dominion is reporting 8,992 outages across Northern Virginia, including 2,832 in Fairfax County and 3,873 in Alexandria.
The downed trees and power lines are affecting bus service in Columbia Forest.
“Due to downed power lines, the ART Route 75 will not be servicing stops on S. Frederick Street until further notice,” Arlington Transit said in an alert earlier this morning. “Passengers can board on George Mason Drive.”

The outages are also affecting library service in Aurora Highlands.
Power is currently out at Aurora Hills due to yesterday's storms. We will open on time at 10 am, but there will be no Public PCs/Wi-Fi, and no access to your Library Account. You will be able to pick up holds & check out items.
All other Library locations are operating normally.— Arlington VA Pub Lib (@ArlingtonVALib) May 23, 2022

Synetic Theater Camps are a wildly fun, highly accessible choice for young people who love moving, playing games, and making memories. Registration is open now for Summer Camps (sessions June 20-August 25) and there are even a few spots left for Spring Break camp, April 3-7.
Located in National Landing, these performance-based camps are designed for students of all ages – no theater or performance experience required.
Led by professional teaching artists, campers learn acting, movement, and technical theater skills through the lens of Physical Theater. Physical Theater incorporates acting, movement, dance, mime, and acrobatics. If you’ve seen a Cirque du Soleil performance, you’ll find many similarities.
Most first-time campers are new to the performing arts, and teaching artists are well-versed in engaging students at all levels. Parents and campers report that one of the best parts of Synetic is the community, with many families returning year after year because they feel a strong sense of belonging.
