When will the power be back in Sunrise, FL?
| Utility information | Our restoration forecast |
|---|---|
| Official ETA, when the utility posts one | Independent estimated return window when trend data allows — often available first |
| Utility-reported status & customer counts | Confidence range + whether the outage is growing, stable, or restoring |
How the forecast works: we analyze how quickly customers are being restored, whether the outage is still growing, current weather, outage size, and similar past outages in this area. Every completed forecast is compared with when power actually returned. As of Aug 22, 8,694 completed outages have been graded this way — median error 1.7 hours across the most recent 600 of them (about 2.2 days), and we publish the misses. See the full record (how it works). Independent and unofficial: never the utility's commitment.

We track live outage data from Florida Power & Light in Broward County — but several utilities can serve one county, so confirm your own by searching your address on the live map.

Common questions
When will my power be back on in Sunrise, FL?
It depends on the cause and how many crews are working. When's the Power Back? combines the live outage count, the current restoration rate, weather, and local history into an independent estimate for the Sunrise area — shown even before your utility posts an official restoration time. Check the live power outage status at the top of this page.
How do I check the power outage status in Sunrise, FL?
This page is a live power outage status check for the Sunrise area: current customers out, the affected areas on the map, and an independent restoration forecast when enough trend data is available, refreshed about every 15 minutes from utilities' own outage maps and the federal government's county outage data. Your utility's own outage map remains the official word for your account.
How do I report a power outage in Sunrise, FL?
Report it to your electric utility — crews are dispatched from customer reports. Utilities tracked in Broward County include Florida Power & Light; confirm your own provider, then use its outage line or website. Reporting a downed line helps crews find the fault faster. In a life-threatening emergency, call 911.
Does this page show Sunrise specifically, or the whole county?
Both, and for Sunrise we have the city-level view: Florida Power & Light has published outages for Sunrise under its own name, most recently seen on 2026-08-17. When Sunrise is affected, you get its own customers-out count and restoration time, with the Broward County county-wide total shown separately as context. Don't add the two together — the county figure already includes Sunrise.
How accurate is the restoration estimate?
Every estimate is later graded against when the tracked outage was substantially restored (~90% of customers back), and the track record is published on our accuracy page. Estimates firm up a few hours into an outage once a steady restoration trend appears; very small outages are marked "too small to estimate" rather than guessed.
