Xcel Energy – do get power to the tower!
June 4th, 2023
UPDATE: BACK TO 5 BARS OF SIGNAL! YES!!
There’s a water tower full of antennae at the top of our West bluff. Does the bluff have a name?
Yesterday, I checked with T-Mobile about the non-existent signal and dropping of calls. T-Mobile said then that for two days, there’s been no power to their antennae and they’re waiting for Xcel Energy to connect it! Today, I checked again, and there still is no power to the antenna.
Nothing shows in the Xcel outage map!
This affects thousands. GET WITH IT, XCEL!
To report outage to Xcel Energy: 800-895-4999
POWER THE TOWER!
Over 640 Xcel customers without power
June 11th, 2016
Over 640 Xcel Energy customers (households, businesses) are without power here in Red Wing this morning after the storms came whipping through here yesterday afternoon. Ours was out for a while, maybe an hour, and then back on. Towards the west end of town, that’s another story, and they’re still without power.
From the map, it looks like Eau Claire was very hard hit, with 2,300+ customers still without power.
The Dogometer predicted a bad storm about half an hour before it hit, evident when she firmly assumed the position under my desk. Now she’s back to normal.
