Farmers Rural Electric Cooperative Corporation released its first press release update for Friday saying that, though yesterday’s storms did cause additional issues, the company is “very close” to completing their restorations.

“The weather on Thursday evening wasn’t kind to our crews, who are still working to restore power to approximately 160 members on Friday morning,” the release states. “However, we are very close to complete restoration, barring any unforeseen circumstances or additional severe weather.”

The National Weather Service Louisville office is warning that more storms are likely this weekend with hail, strong winds, and severe thunderstorms. Farmers RECC is monitoring the upcoming weather today and in the coming days.

“If additional outages happen, we will continue to work as we always do; by evaluating our system, identifying causes of outages and restoring them methodically and safely,” the release states. “We also want to thank our members for their patience, understanding, support and prayers.”
