As Nebraska anticipates a sizeable winter expected to bring heavy snow and high winds into the state, Nebraska Public Power District transmission and distribution line crews are on alert and prepared to restore power from any transmission or distribution outages in its service territory.

NPPD crews respond as quick and safely as possible to outages during winter storms.

Following is information on outage information resources from NPPD:

Storm Center Website

During a storm, NPPD's website is one source of information regarding outages. Real–time outages can be found at www.nppd.com/outages

This will show a real–time map where outages are in retail communities that NPPD serves.

Once an outage has been restored, it will no longer show on the map.

Social Media

In addition, you can follow storm outages on Twitter and Facebook.

Our outage specific Twitter feed is: https://twitter.com/nppdstormcenter or @NPPDstormcenter.

Our Facebook page is http://www.facebook.com/nebraskapublicpowerdistrict.

Both social media sites list where the outage is and how many customers are affected – and also provide a message as to when power has been restored.
