Crews continued to work overnight to safely make repairs and restore power for customers. In some areas, high winds made it unsafe for periods of time for our colleagues to be up in the buckets. The high winds have brought trees and branches into power lines and caused broken poles in most areas across the province.

We have more than 600 people in the field and hundreds more behind-the-scenes working to restore power safely and as quickly as possible. For information and estimated restoration times, visit outagemap.nspower.ca
