Welcome to The Buzz — Spring is just around the corner (we hope) and that means storm season in mid-Missouri. Boone Electric Cooperative’s Manger of Operations Jimmy Goodnight and Manager of Engineering Andrew Petri share how the co-op plans and prepares for bad weather and what it takes to turn the power back on in the event of an outage. Along the way, we find out how outages are prioritized, what members should do in case they experience an outage and the variables involved in how long it can take to restore the system. Plus, we answer the age-old question, “When is my power coming back on?” (The answer: “Never as quick we want it to!”)
