Evergy has 175 tree crews working on storm restoration, clearing limbs and other debris so line crews can make repairs. In addition to Evergy crews, 26 crews from Liberty Utilities that will be arriving today to assist with repairs. As power is restored in areas with fewer outages, Evergy crews will be moved to assist in those areas with the most damage. Damage assessment is under way to provide an estimate of when we think power will be restored to all customers. Crews will continue to work until everyone’s power is back on.
