Rhode Island Energy mobilizes extra crews ahead of weekend storm in Rhode Island
PPL•Crews mobilized ahead of forecast storm
Rhode Island Energy mobilized extra crews ahead of a storm forecast to hit the region Friday through Sunday.
The PPL subsidiary flagged outage risk from wind damage to trees and power lines, with steady rain raising flood concerns in low-lying areas.
Resources include line workers, tree crews, wires-down teams and substation staff. Restoration work will start only when conditions are safe.
