It's Storm Season! Lost Power?

Post Date:04/16/2026

It's Storm Season!
Lost power?  Report it instantly to ComEd:

When responding to power outages caused by storms, ComEd's priority is to restore critical facilities such as police and fire stations, nursing homes and hospitals first, followed by repairs that will restore power to the greatest number of customers.

Public safety is paramount, and ComEd encourages customers to take the following precautions:

  • If a downed power line is spotted, immediately call ComEd at 1-800-EDISON (1-800-334-7661).
  • Never approach a downed power line. Always assume a power line is energized and extremely dangerous.
  • In the event of an outage, do not approach ComEd crews working to restore power to ask about restoration times. Crews may be working on live electrical equipment, and the perimeter of the work zone may be hazardous.

If you’ve lost power, please report it directly to ComEd so crews can be dispatched:

📞 Call 1-800-334-7661 (1-800-EDISON-1)

💬 Text OUT to 26633 (COMED)

🌐 Report online: ComEd.com/Outage
