After the M6.4 earthquake on 4 July , Southern California Edison reported about 6,900 customers experienced power outages due to the earthquake.

A comparison was done to a near nadir pass from NOAA-20 at ~2:37am PDT on 5 July. As can be seen below, while there was some scattered thin clouds in the region
the DNB imagery does verify that there were no lingering outages in the Ridgecrest region
There is a possibility of a larger quake in the coming days or outages due to the large number of aftershocks.
