OVER 17,400 HOMES WITHOUT POWER; OUTAGE UPDATE FROM V.E.C. (8:38 A.M.)
From Volunteer Energy Cooperative 1 hour ago:
Currently, approximately 16,305 accounts remain without power. Our crews have been working tirelessly through the night, restoring service to many members. However, strong winds have caused additional outages beyond the initial ones.
📍 In Crossville, two broken poles and downed transmission lines are among the causes of outages in the area. The attached photos show the damage our crews are working to repair.
We appreciate your patience as we continue restoration efforts as quickly and safely as possible.
