10:00 pm We are now down to 1282 members out at 89 separate locations. We’ve made excellent progress today restoring power to over 4400 meters. Some crews will continue to work throughout the night. Thank you for your patience.
8:00 PM we are down to 1,774 outages at 99 separate locations.
5:00 PM The outage count is now at 2729 members, at 134 separate locations. Our broken pole count is now at 51. As mentioned earlier, we are having to cut our way through many of these areas before we can get in to assess damages and repair or rebuild power lines.
Our crews continue to work, but due to the large number of smaller separate outages still without power, we know that all of them will not be restored tonight.
Our crews will continue to work as long as it is safe to do so. Some will continue working throughout the night.
We thank you for your patience and ask that you pray for our linemen who are working during very challenging circumstances and pray for our members who are having to make do without electricity. Thank you for your patience.
