Two storms in five days KO trees, power
Island Ad-Vantages
|4/16/2020
THE ISLAND—A severe windstorm knocked out most of the Island’s power for nearly 22 hours from Monday night, April 13, to Tuesday afternoon, April 14.
The widespread power outage followed a shorter outage on Friday morning, April 10, when heavy snow downed power lines and disrupted power to 250,000 customers throughout the state.
Utility crews were still working to restore power around Maine on Monday, until high winds began uprooting trees that evening. Deer Isle Town Manager Jim Fisher was driving home on Route 15 when he realized he was driving over power lines. He pulled into the Island Nursing Home and called Emera Maine.
“It was a mess,” he said in a phone interview.
