Well looking at Ameren and Enerstar and Coles Moultrie power outage maps some customers may not have power along with some tower locations as well.

Please let the different power companies get power back up and going and stay out of there way so they can get work done quickly and safely.

If your having issues Friday morning give us a call 217-948-5459 and we can see what is going on.
