Thursday outage comes after tens of thousands left without power earlier this week
Power was out in a large area east of Regina for a few hours on Thursday, which SaskPower says was due to a transmission line issue.
An outage earlier this week — the largest Saskatchewan has faced since 1981 — was also related to transmission line failures, according to SaskPower.
A new outage was reported in the area stretching from Balgonie to Fort Qu’appelle at 2:51 p.m. CST, SaskPower tweeted. Damaged equipment caused the outage and a fix was expected within less than an hour.
