Update at 1:45 PM 7/11/26: Our linemen and mutual aid crews continue working to restore the remaining outages. For the second weekend in a row, they’ve been chasing outages, repairing damage, and restoring power for our members following severe storms.

Along the way, they’ve also snapped photos of the damage they’re finding. While we’ve shared a few already, these images help tell the story of what our crews have been up against. From broken poles to trees tangled in power lines, they offer a glimpse into the work happening behind the scenes to get the lights back on.

Thank you to our crews for their continued hard work and to our members for their patience and support as restoration efforts continue.
