When's the power back on in St. John Island, VI?
Track current power outages in St. John Island, U.S. Virgin Islands — customers reported out, restoration progress, active weather alerts, and an independent island-wide restoration estimate, refreshed about every 15 minutes from the free public ODIN (DOE/ORNL) county outage feed and NWS alerts. Searches by ZIP or address within St. John show this island-wide outlook; the live map adds your serving utility and city-level detail where a public utility feed exists.
How this estimate works
The estimate uses changes in the reported outage count, restoration progress, current weather, outage size, and available local history for St. John. It is independent and unofficial. When a utility posts an official restoration time, both are shown separately — official information and our independent estimate, side by side. We score our own estimates against what actually happened on the accuracy page. Outages below 5 customers are too small for a meaningful island-wide estimate — the page says so instead of guessing.
Island-wide coverage, with utility detail where available. Serving utilities tracked here include WAPA — Virgin Islands Water & Power Authority (VI), alongside the national county baseline.
Common questions
When will my power be back on in St. John Island, VI?
It depends on the cause and how many crews are working, so a whole county rarely has one restoration time. When's the Power Back? combines the live outage count, the current restoration rate, weather, and past outages in St. John into an independent estimate — and shows it even before your utility posts an official restoration time. Check the live status at the top of this page for the current outlook.
How do I report a power outage in St. John Island, VI?
Report it to your electric utility — crews are dispatched from customer reports. St. John is served by WAPA — Virgin Islands Water & Power Authority (VI); use the utility's outage line or website. Reporting a downed line also helps crews find the fault faster. In a life-threatening emergency, call 911.
Why is my power out in St. John Island, VI?
Most outages come from storms and high winds, downed trees or vehicles striking poles, equipment failures, or planned maintenance. The live map shows the currently affected areas in St. John, and your utility's own outage map lists the cause when it is known.
How accurate is the restoration estimate?
Every estimate is later graded against when power actually came back, and we publish the full track record on our accuracy page. Estimates are most reliable a few hours into an outage, once a steady restoration trend is visible; very small outages are marked "too small to estimate" rather than guessed.
