Wind causes power outages in Gibson City, Piper City
GIBSON CITY – Customers in Gibson City and Piper City were still without power Tuesday morning due to the wind taking down 25 utility poles west of Gilman.
Leigh Morris, spokesman for AmerenIP, said there were a number of small outages due to the weather, but the two major areas would be restored as soon as workers can install new poles. Linemen were working this morning with hopes of having all power restored sometime during the day.
