So does anyone know what's happening in Kings Valley with the power outage all over? My power keep dimming and coming back on for several minutes and then it completely went out and it's been out now for about 20 minutes. And I did hear fire trucks and Sirens coming up the valley I don't know if a Transformer blew or power line got knocked over by trees but I already a is obviously not answering because they are closed today. Anybody else experiencing anyting?

The wind blew a tree into power lines on Haldimand Dr and blew a transformer, knocking out power for almost 9,000 customers down to Shawnee. IREA is working on restoring power hopefully by 1am.

I am out and about but I heard that the Kum & Go is lit up again so does that mean the power is back?

We lost service in the Deer Creek, Bailey area, too. About the time it took to get the oil lamps lit and warm blankets out, our service was back on about 5:30.

Thanks to the REA Utility guys for a job well done.
