Power Restored After Tornado

Posted on February 16, 2016

As of 12:50 p.m., all power has been restored to those areas able to receive electricity after yesterday’s tornadoes and storms. Our hearts go out to Century and the other communities that suffered damage from yesterday’s storm devastation. We are thankful for the safety of first responders and our own EREC linemen as they worked throughout the night and today making repairs.
