Arriving storm knocks out power, closes roadway
by KECI staff Saturday, September 28th 2019
MISSOULA, Mont. — Wind from a winter storm arrived Saturday morning, knocking out power across western Montana and closing one roadway.
The Montana Department of Transportation reported that Montana Highway 35 was closed at Woods Bay Hill, 7 miles south of Bigfork, because of a tree and power line across the roadway. The closure was expected to last until 10 a.m.
Authorities have asked that only emergency traffic take Montana Highway 35, as downed trees continue to fall in the area, creating hazardous conditions.
The Flathead Electric Cooperative reported more than 900 customers along the East Shore of Flathead Lake without power as of 9 a.m. There were approximately 200 more customers without power in the Swan Valley, and more than 300 around Little Bitteroot Lake.
The Lincoln Electric Cooperative also reported widespread power outages.
"Our crews are continuing to work outages in the East side of the valley from Burma Road to Graves Creek, " the Cooperative said on Facebook. "In some areas Burma Road especially we are having trouble even getting to the affected areas due to downed trees. The County Crews are out trying to clear the roads now. We have significant damage in the Burma Road area, those residents should prepare for an extended outage. If members need water or a place to hang out our office is open and our Board Room is available."
Northwestern Energy's outage map noted around 100 customers out of power near Choteau, with 9 other smaller active outages of between 1 and 50 customers in areas across the western half of the state.
The City of Choteau reported numerous downed power lines and tress, which are creating dangerous conditions. The Public Works Director has asked that people stay off roads in the area. The Teton County Sheriff's Office also issued an emergency travel only notice on social media.
