Evaluating the Impact

During a storm, we're focused on gathering information from several sources to prepare our response. Weather conditions can affect our ability to dispatch crews and other staff right away, but we begin to respond as soon as safety allows.

Eversource command center Tracking With Our Systems When the storm hits, our team monitors the impact from our control centers. We can estimate the size and cause of some outages using technology, and our automated systems can sometimes reroute energy to restore customers to service.
