The Eugene Water and Electric Board estimates that roughly 1,400 patrons remain without power on Monday morning, as per an announcement on its Facebook page.
This is a significant decrease from the estimates of roughly 5,000 affected mid-day Sunday.
EWEB has requested that clients comfortable sharing their location post their addresses on the Facebook page in order to receive estimates for an estimated repair time. The utility continues to post updates to its Facebook and Twitter pages as they restore power to specific areas in the city.
Scattered areas near the University of Oregon campus suffered power outages since Saturday afternoon, when a mixture of freezing rain and snow from the prior two days wreaked havoc among much of the region, downing tree limbs and power lines. The National Weather Service forecasts highs in the mid-40s to low 50s for the remainder of the week with showers throughout the day.
