We're experiencing challenging weather conditions across our regions.  

Strong wind impacts our ability to work at height, and it can take longer to get the power back on. Until we have safely assessed the extent of any damage, we are unable to provide estimated restoration times.

We will provide further updates when we have more certainty as to when we can restore power.
Supporting customers is always our priority - please report your power cut online so we can keep you updated.

06:00 - Amber Weather Warning Now In Force

Valid from 6:00am until 9:00pm tonight: Storm Éowyn will move across the northwest of the UK on Friday, clearing to the northeast on Friday night. This will bring a spell of very strong west to southwesterly winds, with peak gusts of 60-70 mph fairly widely inland, 70-80 mph in some areas, and 80-90 mph along more exposed coasts and hills (perhaps even higher in a few locations). It should be noted that there may be a slight reduction in wind strength for a time as the centre of Storm Éowyn passes overhead, this most likely in parts of Northern Ireland and western Scotland, before winds rapidly increase again. Winds will gradually ease later on Friday.
