Lincoln, Neb. (KLKN) – LES and other power companies were called to help restore power in Omaha households that was lost after Friday night’s thunderstorm.
About 190 thousand people were without power Saturday morning following the storms. Currently, there’s still around 30 thousand people without power. Local crews are working hard to help remaining households without power.
“It’s extremely important for us here at LES,” said LES Construction Coordinator Fredrick Rumery. “I think it’s just ingrained in who we are, we’re Nebraska nice so when we can lend that helping hand that’s what we want to do.”
