Restoration Details: Reinforcements are on the way from Bangor Hydro sister utilities Nova Scotia Power and Emera Utility Services today. Extra tree crews will join the effort today as well, as crews work to restore power to as many customers as possible before another storm makes its way through the area this weekend. Outages remain scattered across Hancock, Washington and Penobscot County. Several hundred new outages were reported overnight due to the additional snow. An outage in downtown Bangor this morning affecting about 1,000 customers was resolved in about three hours. It was caused by moisture in the electrical system and was related to the recent weather conditions.The Customer Service Center will remain staffed throughout the evening and weekend until all power outages are resolved. Customers should call rather than approach crews for information.Warming over the next few days may cause ice to melt and tree limbs to spring back up striking power lines. This may cause new outages and crews will continue to make repairs as they arise. Please remember to avoid tying to remove power lines and tree limbs near our touching them yourself. Our crews, along with numerous crews from outside utilities are working as quickly and safely as possible to restore power.
