Electric Company Urges You to Prepare for Possible Outages
UNDATED (WJON News) -- With another major storm headed our way power companies want you to prepare now for the possibility of a power outage.
East Central Energy says trees are still weighed down by last week’s snow. ECE forestry crews and contractors have been out, addressing high-risk trees that could pose an outage risk, but it is impossible to know what kind of situations will arise.
They say with such extreme weather, power outages are a possibility.
They advise you to limit travel plans, watch out for downed lines, stock up on necessities and use generators safely.
Regular outage updates will be shared on ECE’s Facebook page.
