Here’s Alisia on our customer team with an important update during the #ONstorm. Crews continue to respond to outages for over 129,000 customers. High winds, lightning strikes and freezing rain has damaged equipment, and the severe weather is expected to continue this evening.

UPDATE: Our crews have made progress, but the damage is significant and customers in the hardest hit areas of central and eastern ON will be without power overnight. We know how difficult it is being without power, and we won’t stop until every customer is restored. #ONstorm

UPDATE: It's 'all hands on deck' as crews work across the province in the hardest hit areas, including #EasternON to safely restore power. Ice accumulation from yesterday’s storm is adding weight to lines and trees, causing damage to equipment. #ONStorm

UPDATE: Crews have made great progress restoring power today despite the treacherous conditions, especially in eastern ON. Here’s Nick with an update on the restoration efforts in Perth. Over 94,000 customers remain without power and all available crews are responding. #ONstorm

UPDATE: Efforts continue today with teams from across the province helping repair damage in eastern ON. The ice storm brought down trees, poles and lines. Crews have restored 282,000 customers since the storm began and are working as quickly and safely as possible. #ONstorm

UPDATE: Since the start of the #ONStorm, power has been restored to over 325,000 customers. Customers in the hardest hit areas are expected to be out overnight. We know how difficult it is to be without power and our teams won't stop until all customers have been restored.

Thank you to everyone at HydroOne for all of the hard work during and after these crazy storms!

Going on 17 hrs in Osgoode, ON. Going to need to make plans for my freezer soon; when will power be restored? We have spent almost $150 in gas for our generator to run our sump pump, which has been running almost nonstop. Which means our generator runs nonstop eating gas.

Updates on Kemptville? The current map doesn’t show any outages on my street but we’ve been bailing buckets of water from our basement to avoid a major flood. We can’t keep this up for much longer.

Seems to be an abundance of power outages in the last couple of years! It appears that Hydro One can’t handle the demands… one ice storm that lasts approx 12 hrs cripples a huge number of customers. I see it!

Thanks so much for what you all do. Brutal hard and dangerous work. Our power was out for almost 20 hours and so glad to be able to shut the generator off! We’ll sleep well tonight.
