Sunday afternoon’s heavy wind caused extensive damage across our territory resulting in additional outages. Our team is working to assess that damage and determine how long it will take to make individual repairs. Once damage is assessed, you may receive an updated ERT. 

Since the start of the storm, we’ve restored power to approximately 119,000 customers. As of 7:30 a.m. this morning, there were 6,273 customers without power. Our crews will keep working until all customers are restored.

After a long week of stormy weather, heavy winds caused widespread outages across our territory Sunday afternoon. Since the start of this storm on Friday, our crews have restored power to nearly 94,000 customers. As of 6 p.m. today, there were approximately 32,700 customers without power.

We’ll work as safely and quickly as possible to assess damage and restore power to all customers who are impacted. We’ve called in additional resources to help with restoration efforts, including line workers, foresters, damage assessors, electricians and call center staff.

We understand it’s especially difficult to be without electricity as temperatures decline. We’re gathering information from our Emergency Management Partners to share available warming stations.
