Thunderstorms and high winds caused a lot of downed trees which brought down wires, broke poles and damaged electrical equipment on Friday night. Potomac Edison has restored power to more than 6,000 of the 18,575 customers affected by the winter storm in the Cumberland area. We will continue to work as quickly as possible to get the remainder of our customers restored. At this time, we believe we will be able to restore most of our customers by Monday.
