@EAndersonOhio Hello. When we contact customers it is typically account related. This can include outage messages, information on a pending work order, or a billing concern. (1/2)

Fall is here! 🍂🎃🥤🧡 What’s your favorite way to PSL?

POMEROY: Flooding has worsened, preventing crews from accessing equipment and making repairs to restore power to about 250 customers.
Extended outages are challenging. Our crews will work as quickly as safely possible to get the electricity flowing as soon as conditions allow.

We know being without power is frustrating. Flooding in parts of southern Ohio, especially near Pomeroy, is making it unsafe for our crews to repair equipment. As soon as it's safe for our crews they will work to get power on quickly. Sign up for alerts: https://t.co/QKHlKPF4eT

Did you know that vehicle accidents are a leading cause of outages? These images are from an accident today in Westerville that took out equipment servicing 2,800 customers. Teams were able to reroute power to get the lights back on for all but 20 customers as they make repairs.

[Ohio Power @OhioPowerCo]

@MessiahCranky Outages can occur for a variety of reasons beyond severe weather, including vehicle accidents, and animals contacting equipment. As soon as crews identify the cause and restoration information becomes available, it's updated in real time at https://t.co/3BN0xNQ3hO. ^TA
