Power outage in Hollywood impacts hundreds day before Oscar Sunday

HOLLYWOOD, Calif. (KABC) -- The day before Hollywood's biggest night, city workers dealt with a minor hiccup: a brief power outage.

According to the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power, more than 1,000 customers in the area were without power Saturday afternoon.

The main outage was fixed at around 2:30 p.m.

The two-hour power outage didn't affect work inside the Dolby Theatre but forced shops and restaurants at the Ovation Hollywood complex to close and stopped elevators at an adjacent hotel.

This comes as a moist weather system off the Pacific continued to bring showers to Southern California, though it was mostly on the light side.

It will be partly to mostly cloudy Sunday and Monday with a slight chance of showers. A strong storm system will bring more rain, heavy at times, to the region Tuesday into early.
