Power expected to be fully restored this afternoon.

Many Pelham residents are still without power following last night's storm.

Niagara Peninsula Energy says the storm knocked down trees and broke numerous hydro polls.

All power is expected to be back later this afternoon.

While other parts of the region also lost power, most of those outages only lasted a few minutes.

Meanwhile, the Town of Pelham says the clean-up effort is expected to be completed within the coming weeks, as crews work to remove a significant amount of debris.

Drivers are asked to be cautious on roadways, sidewalks and pathways throughout the Town.

Multiple poles broken in the Fonthill area. Hydro One and NPEI crews are on scene and making repairs. Crews are estimating at least 6 hours before all power is restored.
