Originally Published 2 years ago — by WMTW Portland
Central Maine Power and Versant are reporting power outages in Maine following the impacts of tropical storm Lee. Avangrid, the parent company of Central Maine Power, brought in around 500 crews from out of state to respond to the outages. Restoration efforts are expected to take multiple days, with Versant Power hoping to resolve the issue within 72 hours and Central Maine Power estimating restoration to extend until Monday or Tuesday. Customers are advised to report outages online and to avoid attempting to clear trees from power lines for safety reasons.
