In Jamestown Scioto, Winsor, Chandler, E. Second between Church and Winsor Streets power was restored.


The Fluvanna Avenue area, where trees brought down power lines, is still in the dark.

Crews are working to restore the rest of Falconer and Fluvanna Avenue.  Most of the reported outages are the result of heavy winds and trees bringing down power lines.
