Dominion Energy is alerting customers in Virginia that power outages are possible due to a wintry mix expected in some areas.

The conditions, Dominion said, may result in icy roadways and possible power outages.

Dominion is closely monitoring the forecast.

How to report power outage, downed line

  • If your power goes out, quickly report and track your outage with the Dominion Energy app or report it online at DominionEnergy.com. You can also check for updates and view the outage map.
  • For your safety, stay away from downed power lines. Report them immediately by calling (866) 366-4357.

Preparation tips from Dominion

  • Keep your mobile phone and other devices fully charged.
  • Stock up on storm supplies like matches, candles, flashlights, batteries, bottled water and non-perishable foods.
  • If someone in your home requires electricity due to a serious medical condition, have a backup plan for an alternate location with power you can rely on during an outage.
