If you woke up in the dark Thursday morning, you’re not alone.
According to Appalachian Power, as of 12:28 p.m., more than 1,800 people are without power in Franklin County as heavy rain continues to move through much of the Commonwealth. AEP says the outages were caused by an ‘equipment-related’ issue but didn’t provide any further details. Power should be restored by 2:30 p.m.
In addition to this, there are also 1,071 people without power in Roanoke due to a tree making contact with a powerline.
Estimated restoration for those outages is 6 p.m., Appalachian Power said.
If you would like to report a power outage, please call 1-800-956-4237.
