"Widespread Power Outages Plague Northeast and California Amid Wintry Storms"

A powerful snowstorm and ice storm in Maine left nearly 141,000 customers without power, with Cumberland County being hit the hardest. Central Maine Power (CMP) has been working to restore service, but it may take until Tuesday evening to fully restore power due to downed trees and falling ice. CMP has deployed additional crews to assist with the restoration efforts. The storm also led to numerous car accidents, but operations at the Portland International Jetport are returning to normal. A warming shelter has been opened for those without power, and temperatures are expected to drop over the next two days.
