Approximately 140,000 Hydro One customers are without power as a result of severe winds that moved across parts of Ontario all day January 9.

Hydro One crews mobilized and deployed to assess and repair the damage resulting from the wind storm report that they continue to see significant numbers of downed poles and trees on lines.

While winds have subsided in parts of the province, some areas continue to experience windy conditions; causing new outages and hampering restoration efforts.

The company expects that some customers in the hardest hit and remote areas may be without power until the end of the week.
