Update 3:22 PM: power pole down near Villa Grove. Crews are on scene. Most likely damaged during storms yesterday and went down today. Probably several hours before power is restored.

CWLP is aware of a power outage in the West Lake Shore Drive area. They are performing the locates now and will be getting service back up as soon as possible. It all depends on the cause, location, and required work. Will update if I learn more.
