I recently received a call from Cloverland Electric. They expect to have power restored late tonight. If, for some reason, you still do not have power and need a place to warm up, shower, or charge your phones, please feel free to reach out. Many thanks to the hard-working members of Cloverland.
I was just informed that Eckerman and Whitefish will be without power for 3-5 days. The school will be available (as soon as I get there) for warmth, charging, showers, etc.
I do not know the status of school on Monday but that decision will be made Sunday if warranted.
The town hall and emergency building is open also if you need an immediate place to go.
Please keep an eye on your pipes, we have extremely cold weather coming.
My cell is 906-630-0985 if you need to get a hold of me. Mr Gross
