Electrical service was restored around 4 p.m. today (10/2/15) to the portion of Ocean City, Md., that was affected by severe flooding that submerged Delmarva Power's electrical infrastructure. For safety reasons, Delmarva Power had to de-energize service to an area south of North Division Street and Baltimore Avenue until the flood waters receded. If significant flooding occurs in other Maryland and Delaware coastal communities, then there is the possibility that similar de-energizing of electrical equipment could occur in order to ensure the safety of customers and emergency services personnel. Delmarva Power will continue to monitor this situation and work closely with our emergency services partners throughout this severe weather event.
Hope it all washes away to keep the Baltimorons away!

Transformers underground for beautification purposes? A great idea in a flood zone. This was done in the early 1990s at a cost of 5 million bucks paid for by every Delmarva Power ratepayer.
