Power Outage Updates
Extensive tree damage from the weekend snowstorm has pushed back Washington Electric Cooperative's estimated full power restoration time to Wednesday, February 10.
Approximately 1,200 outages remain throughout the co-op’s service territory as of 3 p.m. today (Monday).
Washington Electric crews have been working since late Friday night to repair damage that resulted from heavy, wet snow knocking down trees and power lines. Contract crews from Pike Electric and Asplundh as well as crews from Buckeye Rural Electric Cooperative in southeastern Ohio and Owen Electric Cooperative in Owenton, Ky., are providing assistance.
Members without heat are encouraged to seek shelter with friends or relatives until power is restored.
