Power Restored in SEK after Storms

 

Most who lost power during Friday's severe weather have had their power restored.

 

Areas served by Evergy including Fredonia lost power after storms moved through the area. As of 9 p.m. last night, Evergy is reporting that power has been restored to more than 93 percent of impacted customers. About 14,500 customers remain without power from Friday’s storm across the company's service area. More than 3,000 Evergy employees, contractors and personnel from neighboring utilities continue to work around the clock to make repairs and restore power. The remaining outages are mainly located in Lawrence, Topeka and Kansas City. Evergy now expects outages in the Topeka and Lawrence areas to be restored by midday today. Outages in the Kansas City metro area are expected to be restored today and into tomorrow. Many of the remaining outages will require tree removal and reconstruction to restore power to smaller numbers of customers at a time. Evergy provides power for much of eastern Kansas and western Missouri.
