damage assessment is still underway in the hardest hit areas, and we will continue to update restoration times accordingly. the majority of customers who lost power should be restored tonight.

we are closely monitoring the weather forecast as there remains a potential for additional severe storms could cause new outages or slow restoration efforts. our crews remain ready to respond and restore power as safely and quickly as possible. for more information about our restoration process, please visit our website.

restoration times

as with any weather event, please be mindful of the following safety tips:

• live wires can be deadly. stay away from downed power lines. call 1-800-9outage or 1-800-968-8243 to report downed or dangling power lines, damaged or downed poles or other damaged equipment.
• do not trim trees or remove debris on or near downed power lines. only power company crews or their contractors should remove trees or limbs touching power lines. again, stay away from downed power lines.
• keep away from the immediate areas where crews are working. there is always the danger of moving equipment and the possibility of construction materials, limbs or overhead wires falling to the ground.
• if you plan on using a generator for temporary power, get a licensed electrician and disconnect from the utility electric system before hooking up to your main electric panel. 
• do not run a generator in a confined space without adequate ventilation. use them only outdoors, following all manufacturers’ safety guidelines.
• turn off any electrical appliances that can easily be turned to the off position until power is restored.
• check on seniors, who can be particularly susceptible to extreme temperatures.
• try to stay off the roads in affected areas. more traffic in bad weather leads to more accidents, including more injuries and fatalities as well as accidents that can damage electrical poles and other equipment, creating outages and impeding the ability of crews to access and repair damage and slowing restoration.
