Hating winter even more


Third day with no power. Who needs heat anyway?

From the utility company:
As of 10 a.m., 172,000 LG&E customers are without power. KU has 160,000 customers without power throughout the state.

Approximately 40 counties within our service area have sustained significant damage as a result of this winter storm.


Downed wires:
LG&E: 11,329
KU: 7,077


3,977 workers are currently working on restoration efforts for both LG&E and KU combined.


Estimating full restoration will occur 7 to 10 days in LG&E's service area.


Statewide, full restoration may take up to two weeks.
