Clay Electric is in the process of restoring power after Hurricane Debby caused widespread damage to the distribution system. As of Tuesday morning, approximately 19,000 members remain without power, down from 50,000 at the height of the storm on Monday.
Four of the six districts have been essentially restored, and crews from those areas will move to help with the restoration effort in the Gainesville and Lake City districts, which were heavily impacted by Debby. These districts include the counties of Alachua, Baker, Columbia, Levy, Marion and Union.
Clay Electric crews will be joined by additional teams, including crews from Glades Electric Cooperative, Inc., to help with the restoration effort. Continuing less-than-ideal weather conditions in areas that are already heavily saturated might hinder progress.
The best way to report an outage is through the MyClayElectric app, which is free to download. You can call 1-888-434-9844, but please be aware that phone lines are limited.
