After a third wave of winter weather over the weekend, Pacific Power crews continue to respond to multiple scattered outages across its Southern Oregon and Northern California service areas.

Roughly 500 customers were still affected by power outages in Southern Oregon last night and 60 customers were still affected in California.

Working in challenging winter conditions, field crews have made steady progress in their restoration efforts and most customers were expected to have electricity restored by the end of the day.

Due to access issues in some areas, some customers may experience extended outages and they should be prepared for the possibility of being without power overnight.

Pacific Power encourages customers to always be prepared for outages and the utility supports emergency management agencies that recommend Oregonians have an emergency plan for up to 72 hours without essential services.

If you spot a downed power line, call 9-1-1 and then report the outage to Pacific Power at 1-(877)-508-5088.
