Electricity restored to more than 8,000 homes – but Storm Corrie on her way

Power has been restored to more than 8,000 homes affected by Storm Malik.

However, Electricity North West is warning people to be prepared as further bad weather is set to arrive from Storm Corrie.

It said it was well prepared for further bad weather after Storm Malik brought winds of more than 60mph to areas of Cumbria and the North West.

Properties in Eamont Bridge, Troutbeck and High Bank Hill were affected.

The winds caused a number of trees to fall on to powerlines in the region, cutting power until engineers were able to reroute supplies or make repairs.

Following the quick restoration of power, extra teams are now on standby again, ready to face Storm Corrie, named by the Met Office on Saturday, and associated yellow weather warnings for wind for the region.

Electricity North West operations director, Clive Wilkinson, said: “This looks like it’s going to be a tough weekend for the region, particularly following the devastation caused by Storm Arwen at the end of November.

“We know that some of the same properties affected by Arwen have already been impacted again and we’ve been proactively contacting people with updates, including calling those most in need via the details on our Priority Services Register.

“Storm Corrie is set to bring strong winds again so we’re encouraging customers to sign up to our register if they think they would need extra help in a power cut so that we can prioritise them for assistance if they are affected.”

If anyone sees any damage to the network they must stay clear as it could still be live posing danger of death. Report any damage immediately to Electricity North West on freephone 105.
