More than 30,000 MLGW customers are without power resulting from a strong line of thunderstorms with high winds Monday afternoon. MLGW crews are currently working to assess damages and restore power.

MLGW is reinforcing the need for safety around downed power lines and other potential hazards.

Customers should avoid contact with downed power lines—even if their home or area has experienced a loss of power, the lines could still be energized.
 

Customers are reminded to call the following numbers:

• To Report an Outage: 544-6500
   
• To Report an Emergency (such as downed lines or gas leaks): 528-4465
   
• Outage numbers can be tracked via MLGW's outage map at mlgw.com/outagemap.
