Author: KSRM News Desk |

Homer Electric Association is responding to close to 30 power outages effecting over 1,900 members in the Soldotna, Kenai, Sterling, Kasilof and Nikiski areas, due to strong winds.

 

HEA Linemen report that there are places where trees are falling into the line, as fast as they are cutting them off the line.

 

Progress on these outages will be slow until the wind decreases.

 

PLEASE BE CAREFUL there are multiple places where the wire is down across roads.

 

For your safety do not approach any downed lines.

 

If you are without power at this time, please call 1-888-868-8243.
