Thousands of customers remain without power. In some places, roads are impassable due to hanging power cables.<\/p>\n<h4>Power Failures Reported by Energa Operator<\/h4>\n<p>The storms that passed over the Mazowieckie voivodeship led to widespread power failures. According to information provided by Energa Operator, approximately 9,300 customers are without electricity, and 520 transformer stations have no power supply.<\/p>\n<h4>Affected Districts in the Region<\/h4>\n<p>Problems occur in the Ciechan\u00f3w, Mak\u00f3w, M\u0142awa, Nowy Dw\u00f3r, P\u0142ock, P\u0142o\u0144sk, Pu\u0142tusk, Sierpc, and \u017buromin regions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPower supply interruptions are ongoing. Approximately 9,300 customers and 520 transformer stations remain without power in the districts of Ciechan\u00f3w, Mak\u00f3w, M\u0142awa, Nowy Dw\u00f3r, P\u0142ock, P\u0142o\u0144sk, Pu\u0142tusk, Sierpc, and \u017buromin,\u201d Energa Operator reports.<\/p>\n<h4>Causes and Repair Operations<\/h4>\n<p>The cause of the power supply interruptions is damage to the power infrastructure caused by gusty winds. In many places, lines were snapped and network elements were damaged.<\/p>\n<p>Power brigades are working to locate faults and restore power as quickly as possible. Due to the scale of the damage, removing some failures may take until the afternoon hours. Repair times depend, among other things, on the type of damage and the ability of technical crews to safely reach individual sections of the network.<\/p>\n<h4>High-Voltage Pole Damage in Kuyavian-Pomeranian<\/h4>\n<p>Serious consequences of the storms were also noted in the Kujawsko-Pomorskie voivodeship. The force of the wind was so great that a high-voltage transmission line pole was broken.<\/p>\n<h4>Blocked Roads and Safety Hazards<\/h4>\n<p>In some places, roads are blocked by hanging power wires. Cables located above roadways pose a serious danger to both drivers and pedestrians, and also hinder the operations of technical crews and order services.<\/p>\n<p>Until the damaged lines are secured, one should not approach snapped or hanging wires. Each such incident should be reported to emergency services or the power grid operator.<\/p>\n<p>Residents of areas affected by failures should monitor announcements from energy operators and local services. Power restoration will take place gradually, along with securing subsequent damaged sections of the network.<\/p>\n<p>NOTE: The graphic presentation of outage areas on the map and the estimated power restoration times is of an orientational nature and is subject to change. The data presented on the map is updated with a delay, and their refreshing may take up to a dozen or so minutes. In cases of emergency outages, messages covering larger areas and large groups of customers are presented.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Severe storms and strong winds have caused major power grid failures in the Mazowieckie and Kujawsko-Pomorskie voivodeships, leaving thousands of customers without electricity and blocking roads with hanging cables.
