PENNSYLVANIA — More than 130,000 people are without power in central Pennsylvania after severe storms swept through the area.

Outage maps show the most affected areas include Cumberland, Dauphin and Lancaster counties, with over 68,000 total without power across several energy providers.

Here’s a county-by-county breakdown, as of around 3 p.m. Sunday.

Gov. Josh Shapiro said the Pennsylvania Emergency Management Association and Pennsylvania Utility Commission are helping to restore power.

A PPL spokesperson told CBS 21 that they’ve called in extra assistance from partners in Canada, Rhode Island and Kentucky.

Regarding restoration times, large storms require a methodical restoration process. We first assess damage to major infrastructure, then restore critical facilities such as hospitals and emergency services, followed by repairs that return power to the greatest number of customers. As crews complete assessments and are assigned repair work, more specific estimated restoration times are provided to customers. In some cases, multiple repairs may be required before power can be fully restored to an individual location.

PPL pledged to work around the clock to get customers back online. Current estimates say power will be back by Tuesday night at the latest.

“We understand how difficult it is to be without power, particularly during a holiday weekend and amid extreme heat … Hundreds of personnel, including lineworkers, foresters, damage assessors and support staff, are engaged in restoration efforts across our 29-county service territory,” the spokesperson said.

PPL offered to reimburse its customers for ice and water purchases during the outages. Each customer can be reimbursed for a maximum of three 10-pound bags of ice and three gallons of water per day.
