VP of Distribution Operations, Jeremy Smith, is with crews today as they replace poles and reattach wire damaged by recent storms. From vegetation damage to full pole replacements, these repairs are critical after a year that’s already brought 140 tornadoes to Illinois—the highest count in the country. That's why we're continuing to invest in a stronger grid to keep your power safe and reliable. To track restoration progress, please visit: ComEd.com/OutageTracker.

If you're still without power, we want you to know, you have not been forgotten. We recognize that being without power affects every part of your daily life. That weight is not lost on us. This has been the most damaging storm since the 2020 Derecho. Large trees are down across equipment and blocking access to neighborhoods with restoration needs, and hundreds of utility poles broken and must be completely replaced — not simply repaired. That kind of work is complex and takes more time to do safely, even with crews working around the clock. Additional storms on Saturday evening and this morning have further complicated our efforts. More than 3,500 ComEd employees and contractors are working as quickly and safely as possible to restore every single customer. We know patience has its limits, and we don't take yours for granted. Thank you for hanging in there. Get updates anytime at ComEd.com/Storm
