PORTLAND, Maine (AP) Maine is still cleaning up from a nor’easter that caused a lot of tree and power line damage.
Central Maine Power’s line crews made progress in restoring power and reached the halfway point in their efforts on Friday, with a peak of 180,000 customers without power on Thursday. You can check here for the latest power outage information from Central Maine Power.
The utility released a county-by-county breakdown of estimated restoration times Friday evening. They say they’ll have more specific estimates as progress is made.
CMP said some parts of the Maine coast, which saw the most damage, should be prepared for a “multi-day” outage.
The storm downed lines and tees and damaged homes and cars and boats.
CMP said it was being assisted by more than 100 contractor line crews and an additional 190 repair crews from Connecticut, New York and Canada.
