Meanwhile in Minneapolis
Yeah we got hit up in the Twin Cities this evening;
QuoteTens of thousands of people across the metro are without power due to Wednesday night's severe weather.
According to Xcel Energy, more than 65,000 people in the Twin Cities area were without power as of about 9:05 p.m. To report a power outage, click here.
"Hundreds of employees are out working to safely restore electric service to customers as quickly as possible," read a press release. "We understand that power outages can be a major inconvenience for customers, and we appreciate customers’ understanding, patience and kindness as our crew members work to restore power."
The press released continued: "When it comes to restoring power, top priority is given to situations that threaten public safety, such as live downed wires. Repair priority is based on what will restore power to the largest number of customers most quickly, such as transmission lines or feeder lines that serve large amounts of customers."
I got home to find the joint still intact and with electrical power so I'm relieved.
