Who serves West Des Moines — and how this estimate works
Serving utilities tracked for Polk County include MidAmerican Energy (IA). The estimate uses changes in the reported outage count, restoration progress, current weather, outage size, and available local history. It is independent and unofficial — when a utility posts an official restoration time, both are shown separately. We score our own estimates against what actually happened on the accuracy page. Outages below 25 customers are too small for a meaningful area-wide estimate — the page says so instead of guessing.
