Power Outages During Severe Weather – Marengo County

During severe weather, power outages may occur and can last from hours to days—or even weeks.

Important Information:

911 dispatchers do not have a special number to report outages, nor do they have updates on:

When power will be restored

The cause of the outage

Any other utility-related details

Homeowners should contact their power company directly to report outages and get information.

Calling 911 to report an outage will not expedite restoration. Dispatchers must focus on emergencies that threaten life or property.

Being prepared and contacting your utility provider directly ensures that the outage is reported efficiently and keeps 911 lines open for true emergencies.
