● MLGW's Customer Care Center will be open to take calls overnight tonight.

● Customers can call 544-6500 to report an outage and 528-4465 to report emergencies such as downed power lines.

● Customers still without power are asked to leave their back gates accessible for MLGW employees if their electric lines are in the back yard.
