Our troubleshooters found the cause of the below outage. A large pine tree fell down on top of a power line south of Blondo near 96th St. It also damaged the cross arms supporting the power line. Our team called in a tree crew for assistance. Meantime, they hope to be able to restore power to a large number of customers soon by switching their serivce over to another source. We will post updates as we learn more.
