How the forecast works: we analyze how quickly customers are being restored, whether the outage is still growing, current weather, outage size, and similar past outages in this area. Every completed forecast is compared with when power actually returned. As of Aug 29, 10,231 completed outages have been graded this way — median error 1.6 hours across the most recent 600 of them (about 2.5 days), and we publish the misses. See the full record (how it works). Independent and unofficial: never the utility's commitment.

Reporting a downed line helps crews find the fault faster. In a life-threatening emergency, call 911.
Does this page show Fort Morgan specifically, or the whole county?
Both, and for Fort Morgan we have the city-level view: Southeast Colorado Power Assn has published outages for Fort Morgan under its own name, most recently seen on 2026-08-21.

How accurate is the restoration estimate?
Every estimate is later graded against when the tracked outage was substantially restored (~90% of customers back), and the track record is published on our accuracy page. Estimates firm up a few hours into an outage once a steady restoration trend appears; very small outages are marked "too small to estimate" rather than guessed.
