our crews have made progress over the weekend, but damages are extensive. the storm caused damage to 657 poles, 1,080 spans of line, 61 transformers, and 354 crossarms, with majority of those being in the northern region. more than 380 additional workers are assisting with restoration. we appreciate your patience as our crews restore power as quickly as they can safely do so.

the safety of our workers and customers remains our key value. as we continue to restore service, please remember:
- power is restored faster in areas with less damage. some of the hardest-hit areas may take longer.
- service lines to individual homes and businesses will be restored last because fewer customers are involved. in the case of fewer outages spread over larger areas, it often takes more time to get power back on for them.
- as we restore service in your area, keep in mind that if you don’t see us working near you, we may be working on another part of the electrical system that you can’t see but must be repaired to get power to you.
- please do not approach utility workers at the job site because these can be dangerous locations. interruptions will slow their progress.
