Heads up, ice on the lines + high wind = outages in some areas. Hang in there.

As of 2 p.m. 10/31, WH crews are facing over 160 outage incidents across our service territory, with more than 5,000 members out. We're working as safely as we can to get your power back on, but roads are slippery and safely restoring power takes time. You can keep an eye on our outage map at outage.whe.org for outage information, and when we have an estimated restoration time for your outage it will be posted there as well. Thanks for your patience, we appreciate you being WH members!
