Gusty Winds Lead To Walnut Hill Power Outage

February 9, 2016

Gusty winds blew a limb into a power line in Walnut Hill Tuesday morning near the Walnut Hill Fire Station on Highway 97. That caused a power outage for a large number of Escambia River Electric Cooperative customers in the Walnut Hill area, including Ernest Ward Middle School.  NorthEscambia.com photo, click to enlarge.

    >>Does anyone know how long the school will be without power and are they keeping the kids at school.

    Power company just arrived about 10:05, should not take but a few minutes to fix. They are keeping the kids at the school; they are just fine.
