The winter storm could drop as much as an inch of ice, creating a challenge for utility crews. While this storm is not expected to be as bad as 2009, many lessons have been learned and crews feel more prepared for the storm.
If you do lose power, here is how you can report the outage. City Water and Light customers can text the word Out to 800-933-3672 or report directly on their website. Craighead Electric Cooperative customers can report outages using their Smart Hub app on mobile devices or on their website.
