This morning’s storm snapped multiple poles downing several spans of power line in Madison and Bond counties, leaving 675 members without power. The outage is affecting members from Alhambra Road east to Shawnee Road, and from Round Prairie Road south to I-70. Crews are on site making repairs. 

In the wake of the storm, please be alert for sagging or fallen lines and treat every power line as if it’s energized. If you see downed or low-hanging power lines, stay clear of the area and contact Southwestern Electric Cooperative at 800-637-8667. If you’re clearing debris, look for sagging or fallen wires before they begin working.
