WEC crews have restored power to all but about 80 members in Plainfield, Marshfield, and Orange. As mentioned in our previous update, some of these outages require additional work or are in remote locations, which extend restoration time. Crews are working as safely and quickly as they can. For specific numbers and outage locations, please see the WEC Outage Map.

Crews have been working steadily to restore power, with about 350 still out. As these remaining outages may either require additional work (like replacing poles or lines) or are in more remote locations, outages may persist into the afternoon. We will continue providing updates here as information is available.

Statewide, about 28,000 Vermonters remain without power. Winter Storm Finn most severely affected the western side of the Green Mountains, Champlain Valley, and the Northeast Kingdom.

Thank you for your patience as we work to restore the remaining outages. For specific numbers and outage locations, please see the WEC Outage Map. With another storm incoming this weekend, please continue to be prepared for potential outages.
