The number of hydro outages in the region is down to small clusters in parts of Huron, Perth and Wellington.

Most of the clusters are in a block between Hwy. 8 and Hwy. 86. There are also pockets of outages around Mapleton and Harriston. All of them under 20 customers with restoration times around 4pm Monday.

Two schools had to close this morning because of no power, South Perth Centennial School near St. Marys and Elma Public School in North Perth.
