More than 41,000 Ameren Corporation customers are without power this morning in Missouri and Illinois after freezing rain swept over the area last night.
The majority of outages are in Missouri, where 30,000 customers are without power. The outages are concentrated around Jefferson City and a few smaller towns just west of the St. Louis metro area.
Ameren’s division in Missouri, called AmerenUE, is mobilizing its resources to turn the power back on.
The company said yesterday it is adding more than 200 repair crews to its storm response effort.
