BELL COUNTY, Texas — Bell County saw the most overall outages due to the winter storm that hit Central Texas. Several residents reported downed trees and downed power lines due to ice.

For McLennan County, the area saw 81 people without power as of Friday morning. 

Oncor released a statement via their website, giving updates about the Central Texas area:

Your community received some of the heaviest ice accumulation causing significant damage to power lines and poles. Resources have been working in many areas (often not visible from the road) to remove vegetation and debris. Additional resources are in your vicinity today assisting with restoration efforts as it may require multiple crews to remove vegetation, repair poles and replace wires.  

Oncor posted to Twitter saying its front-line workers have restored the majority of Oncor customs affected by the winter storm.
