Hats off to all the men at the electric company who go out and brave the cold to restore our power and the women who back that up. We know you are doing all you can and more. Thank you. Its management that controls your priorities!!!! politics!!

Here is why you can lose power in cold weather. With as many lighting strikes as we have in thunder storms it weakens the power transformers and they fail during extreame demands ( like your battery in your automobile in cold weather ). So don,t blame the power companies there are out there working to get power restored. Show some appreciation I’m sure they would like this.

Ruby… Not real sure why it was out, but it was probably due to the cold weather acting on the power lines; sometimes this will happen…

Does anyone know what happened and why we were out of power for almost 2 1/2 hours?

I live on Crabtree and my power went out at 9:05 and finally came on for good at 11:24. It was starting to get COLD! Thank goodness it’s on now.

I surely hope that EREC gets all of this power up soon for everyone, it’s too cold to be without heat…
