Hundreds of thousands remained in the dark Thursday after a winter storm brought a mix of snow, ice, and freezing rain to the Northeast United States. The recent spate of cold weather and winter storms has weighed heavily on the nation's energy infrastructure.
Officials were working to restore power to more than 400,000 customers in southeastern Pennsylvania
early Thursday after one of the region's most damaging winter storms. A
mix of snow, ice, and freezing rain downed power lines and could
continue to interrupt service into the weekend.
It has been a rough winter for the nation's power infrastructure.
Unrelenting cold and a swath of winter storms have taken their toll on
wind turbines, propane tanks, natural gas pipelines, electricity
transmission lines and just about everything else up and down the power
supply chain.
