Thousands of county residents were without power on April 12 after a severe ice storm swept through the area early in the day.
The storm also damaged countless trees, which forced the temporary closure of some local roads.
Hydro One reported well over 115,000 people in the province were affected by the power outage, with every single Wellington municipality hit to varying degrees.
Centre Wellington, Minto, Mapleton, Wellington North, Erin, Guelph-Eramosa and Puslinch were all affected, with the northern part of the county seemingly the hardest hit.
At about 9am Wellington County OPP reported that Wellington Road 12, between Wellington Road 109 and the 12th Line of Mapleton Township, was closed due to approximately 30 snapped hydro poles.
Minto and Mapleton both opened arenas and municipal offices for residents wanting to warm up or charge cell phones.
But thousands in the centre and south portions of the county were also without power well into the afternoon. Some reports indicate the Rockwood area, for example, had over 1,500 without service.
Regardless of location, there is no word on when power will be restored, but for many of those in the cold/dark, it will likely be days before everything is fixed.
