Many schools have closed, and Xcel has positioned power crew members to restore power as soon as possible. Customers are advised to report any damage to power lines and stay clear of hazards. Xcel is also working with the Red Cross to set up comfort centers for residents in need. Stay informed and prepared with this update.
