UPDATED: Power outages scattered across Top of Utah

UPDATED at 11:00 a.m.

Power has been restored to Rocky Mountain Power customers in Corinne and Promintory, said RMP spokeswoman Margaret Oler.

The number of Ogden customers still in the dark has been reduced to 59, she said. That outage was caused by a car accident, Oler said.

Sections of three Top of Utah cities are without power this morning.

A broken circuit at the 23rd Street substation in Ogden has affected 533 customers, said Rocky Mountain Power spokeswoman Margaret Oler.

The outage began at 8:47 a.m. and crews have yet to determine the cause, she said.

Fifty customers in Corinne have also been without power since 7:14 a.m., when a lightning strike severely damaged a power pole there, Oler said.

A similar situation is under way in Promontory, where another power pole was damaged by what Oler suspects was a lightning strike. Fourty-seven customers are currently without power in the area, she said.
