ST. GEORGE — High winds and a trace of snowflakes in the St. George area have also been marked by power outages and fallen trees on Wednesday.
The largest power outage affected around 1,700 customers in LaVerkin for 30 minutes to an hour Wednesday morning. Rocky Mountain Power also reported outages for dozens in Cedar City and in the area between New Harmony and Enterprise.
The electricity provider said outages are to be expected with the weather and they are working to keep up with them.
"Rocky Mountain Power line crews continue their work restoring service to customers across our service territory as a persistent winter storm brought heavy wet snow to the area," Rocky Mountain Power said in a statement. "It will take time to assess damage, make repairs and restore power due to the extent of the damage. Some customers may experience multiple outages or extended outages."
