Dominion Energy Urges Customers to Prepare for Second Ice Storm
RICHMOND, Va. , Feb. 17, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Dominion Energy Virginia crews are preparing for a second round of ice and freezing rain as they wrap up restoration efforts following last weekend's destructive ice storm. The second ice storm is expected to begin Thursday, and it could potentially be more impactful than the most recent ice event that left more than 290,000 customers without power.
More than 6,000 workers – including crews from 12 states, Washington D.C. , and Canada – have been working around the clock for the past five days to restore power from the worst ice storm in Virginia since January 2000. As of 6 p.m. Wednesday , Dominion Energy crews have restored service to nearly 99% of the 290,000 customers who lost power. Damage has been reported at more than 9,600 work locations, and crews have made the necessary repairs at more than 9,200 of those sites.
Why didn’t Austin Energy shut down some of its biggest customers until Tuesday?
AUSTIN (Texas) — To help with power conservation, the City of Austin ordered manufacturing, industrial and commercial businesses to slow or stop operations as much as possible .
But as KXAN found out, that didn’t happen for some of the biggest companies until Tuesday — after so many homes were already in the dark.
“I had to put my mattress in the kitchen and kind of turn on and off my stove,” said Samantha Reyes.
She says she knows that wasn’t safe but was desperate, going through two days without power with her kids.
