Over 500 households are still without electricity in Fleming County as Fleming-Mason Energy crews work around the clock, hampered by the bitter cold that is preventing the ice from melting. Two crews from North Carolina have arrived to help with the effort, which includes 1,000 homes in Mason County without power.
Side roads are treacherous, adding to the problems, and the highway update is below.
Yesterday’s ice, rain, and then more snow compounded a bad situation, and power line crews were hampered by new problems caused by the continuing bad weather. Mary Beth Nance of Fleming-Mason said the crews hope to put a dent in the big job today. Another update will be issued later.
