The outage map

FPL’s Power Tracker is an interactive map of current outages across FPL’s service area. Enter a street address, city or ZIP code to see outages near you and the estimated time of restoration. It does not show flickers or brief interruptions. During an outage, open it on a phone or a battery-powered laptop.

Streetlights

Streetlights in Boynton Beach are generally FPL’s responsibility; most are on wooden or concrete poles, according to the city’s streets and sidewalks page.

  • FPL streetlights: report through FPL’s streetlight form or at 1-800-4OUTAGE. FPL asks for the nearest street address and landmarks, or the light’s pole number.
  • City decorative streetlights: the city maintains a small number of decorative light systems. Report those to Public Works, 561-742-6200; after hours, 561-742-6234.

Water and sewer when the power is out

Water and sewer service in Boynton Beach comes from the city’s own utility, not FPL.

Before a storm

  • Sign up for the city’s emergency notifications and the county’s AlertPBC; see our hurricane prep guide.
