Storms on Monday left hundreds of households in South Estonia without electricity, ETV news show Aktuaalne kaamera (AK) reports.
The outages mostly affected the most rural areas of Võru County, with Võru town and other larger population centers largely escaping the problem, caused by wet snow more than wind speeds. Tartu County has also been hit.
Customer manager at grid distributor Elektrilevi told AK that: What happened was that wet snow got on power lines, with branches weighed down by the deposits causing short circuits … In relation to this, several medium voltage lines went out.
As of Monday over 500 customers were waiting to be reconnected to their electricity, AK reported, while snow and high winds have caused around 1,000 power cuts in recent days.
