Despite the damage and loss of power, they make for beautiful photographs! At the power outage peak last night there were 7 thousand PUC customers without power. At the time of this post about 1800 customers are still without electricity. Customers in the P Patch area have been in the dark since last evening around 10:30pm. PUC workers continue their efforts to restore electrical service to that area as well as to those in the west end of the city and outside the western city limits. According to the PUC Power is out in multiple areas within the city due to the Ice and snow.
Some areas include:

Great Northern Rd North of Third line to city limits, Old Goulais Bay Rd from Fourth line to Sixth Line, Whitepine, Backcountry

Second Line West west of Allen’s Side rd to Gros Cap

Second Line West sout on Airport to to Pointe Des Chenes area

P-Patch

PUC has also contracted local arborists, as well as a firm from Mount Pleasant Michigan to help clear branches from power lines.
