24.01.2022 Good morning After a quick drive in and around the Londonderry area we have noticed quite a lot of extensive damage including power lines that are down and trees on cars this is results of last night's storm and some parts of Londonderry are still without power There seems to be a lot of power lines still down and across roads we need to be vigilant if you're in the area and stay away from those power lines Endeavour Energy still investigating as to why there is no power but seem to have a estimate time of restoration of 8 a.m. but to be honest with you I don't think that will happen given the amount of damage in the area
