A dark start to the day for close to one thousand residents in the Dresden area.
Hydro One has crews working on a number of power outages on the north-east side of Chatham-Kent, the largest swath stretching from just east of Dover Centre up to Edys Mills.
Crews are also working on issues near Brigden, Tupperville, and just east of Thamesville.
The utility is hoping to have all power restored by 8am.
As well, emergency crews are on the scene of a downed power line on Lambton Line between St Clair Parkway and Base Line.
