Power outages down to a handful in Des Plaines

Between 10 and 15 Des Plaines residents are still without power at about noon today, said John Pluta, the Des Plaines Emergency Management Coordinator.

At one point, more than 2,000 Des Plaines were without power on Wednesday; however, ComEd worked though the night to restore power, Pluta said. The goal is to have all service restored by evening.

“When you consider the storm we had, I think the response has been remarkable,” he said.
