Winds this morning are causing additional outages in WEC territory. Crews came in early and are out working on those issues now, but we anticipate more events as wind continues across the state. About 74 WEC members are out of power currently, with about 200 out statewide.

WEC is down to having about 500 members out of service at this point, but a few additional outages continue to come in.
A broken pole in Vershire affecting about 50 members will likely mean that outage will take until tomorrow morning to repair as downed trees have to cleared in order to access the area and replace the pole.

WEC crews have successfully restored power to more than 3,600 members, including in several spots where restoration had already been done once or twice only to have another outage. Currently there are 18 outage events affecting roughly 1,500 members.
An outage in Vershire caused by a broken pole and affecting about 50 members may take into tomorrow to repair as access is blocked by downed trees and ice.

WEC crews have once again restored an outage affecting the Maple Corners Substation. Additional outages continue to come in, including a large one in the Topsham, Orange, Groton area. Overall, more than 2,500 WEC members are out of power currently, while just under 6,000 are out statewide.
Warmer temperatures have been slower to arrive than hoped, but we still anticipate restoring all current outages today. Additional outages may occur this evening and overnight as winds pick up.

Additional outages continue to come in as ice brings trees and branches down on power lines, including a second outage on the line serving the Maple Corners Substation. Crews are working on restoration now, and there are about 850 WC members currently out of service.

WEC crews have successfully repaired the outage affecting the Maple Corners Substation, bringing the total number of members out of service down to about 460. Line crew members continue to work, but as there are 11 separate issues around the territory and travel remains difficult full restoration may take some time.
We also anticipate additional outages this evening and overnight as strong winds are expected to come into our area.

Ice has caused power outages across Vermont, including in WEC territory. The transmission line serving the Maple Corners substation is out, and there are two other events on WEC lines. Crews are working on or on the way to all three current outages, but very icy roads are making travel slow.
We anticipate additional outages as the day goes on, and likely overnight as well with strong winds predicted.
