Utility crews are actively working to restore power lost as a result of the storm.
⚠️Use caution in areas where power lines are still down!
⚠️Never assume that a downed power line is not energized, as it still could be “LIVE.”
📲Report it to your utility ASAP!

Unless extended, these emergencies expire after 30 days. Given where we are currently, we must remain in a proper footing to continue responding to this pandemic.
