NORTH AUGUSTA, S.C. (WRDW/WAGT) - A swath of North Augusta dealt with a power outage Tuesday morning.
Dominion Energy reported more than 2,000 customers were without power as of 8:50 a.m. Tuesday in an area that encompassed downtown and much of the area just north of the Savannah River.
However, much of the power had been restored by 9:05 a.m., with the outage affecting just 93 customers in the Carolina Heights neighborhood.
Traffic lights were reportedly out for a time, but at least some were back on by 9 a.m., according to public safety staff.
Dominion has no estimate on how long full restoration could take.
