Outages - Sunday June 29th

We currently have 90 members without power in the Tecumseh area from this evening’s storm moving through. Additionally, 90 members are without power in the Trask / Mountain View area from earlier this afternoon, but high water levels at crossings in the area are impeding restoration. Dispatch is aware of the outages.

Heat Illness: Know the Signs

During hot and humid weather, your body's ability to cool itself is challenged in ways you may not expect. When your body heats too rapidly, or when too much fluid or salt is lost through dehydration or sweating, you may experience a heat-related illness. Learn the symptoms of Extreme Heat exposure and the appropriate responses.

Weather Radio Outage

It is always crucial to have multiple ways to receive weather warnings! Through Wednesday, June 18, radio transmission for NOAA will be down for computer upgrades, meaning weather radios will not report weather events. Always stay weather aware!
