WVDOT, ApCo crews ready
West Virginia Department of Transportation encourages all motorists to use caution on the roads as West Virginia Division of Highways crews work to keep them clear.
Appalachian Power’s Storm Response Team is monitoring the weather forecast. If the weather turns to freezing rain, ice accumulations over a quarter inch weigh down trees and electric lines, which can cause substantial utility problems.
In anticipation of the approaching storm, all company crews and contractors are stationed in their respective areas, fully packed and ready to respond to outages.
Additionally, Appalachian Power has requested 600 line mechanic personnel and 100 assessors from neighboring utilities. These additional crews are expected to be in its service territory later today and ready to assist with storm restoration as early as tomorrow morning.
