MECO POWER OUTAGE UPDATE: 5 A.M. 8/8/14 mauinow/2014/08/07/meco-updates-report-outages-downed-lines-to-trouble-line/ Downed trees and debris in electrical lines kept Maui Electric crews busy throughout the night and into the early morning hours. Approximately 3,000 customers lost power in areas of upcountry including Olinda, Piʻiholo, Pukalani, and Haʻikū. Crews are unable to safely access certain areas and for this reason, approximately 200 customers in the Pukalani, Piʻiholo, and Olinda area remain without power. Crews will begin repairs as soon as it is deemed safe. On Molokai, shortly after 12 a.m. approximately 480 customers in Kamalo lost power when trees came down on power lines along Kamehameha V Highway. Power was restored to all affected Molokai customers at 3:15 a.m. Our crews are working hard to restore power as quickly as possible for our customers, said Maui Electric President Sharon Suzuki. Safety remains our top priority so we ask for the publics patience as we respond to this storm. #Iselle #MECO #mauielectric #julio #hurricane
