Crews begin to wind down their power restoration work

Wisconsin Public Service hopes to be done restoring your power by the very latest on Saturday. What started out as 15,000 customers in Door County has dwindled down to just over 3,200 as of 11:30 a.m. on Friday. The utility provider has been working around the clock and hope to be 97 percent restored by the end of Friday. The remaining three percent have crews assigned to them. According to WPS, they have over 300 technicians from across Wisconsin helping repair the damage left in the wake of the storm. As a result of the storm, WPS has responded to more than 1,500 reports of damaged utility poles, downed power lines, and large trees falling onto electrical equipment. Door County was still getting reports of those issues on Thursday to the dispatch center with 10 calls for wires down and two calls for fallen trees.
