Outage Update 2:10pm

We have about 30 accounts that remain without power. Linemen continue to work on power restoration.

Sometimes when we have a downed powerline, a broken pole, or trees heavy in the powerlines, the linemen need to initiate an outage to repair the damage.

Again, we appreciate your patience.

Outage Update 10:25am

August 8th - OUTAGE 7:30am

Although the thunderstorm moved through quickly, it managed to cause multiple outages within our service territory. We have about 500 accounts without power.

The outage path is from the Crookston area going diagonally northeast to Goodridge.

All linemen are in the field working on the outages; however, it will take some time to get everyone restored.

We appreciate your understanding and patience as our linemen work as quickly and safely as possible.

If the conditions are safe and you would like to send storm pictures to us, please email them to [email protected]. DO NOT go by any downed power lines.
