There remained around 3,700 homes without electricity this Friday, November 22, 2024 at 6 p.m. in Manche, according to Enedis, “particularly because of falling trees or branches on the cables”. This figure was 7,000 households on Friday morning. In France, the Normandy region is the most affected with 69,000 customers cut off by the snowstorm Caetanowhich occurred forcefully on Thursday, November 21, 2024.
North of Coutances
In the Channel, two sectors seem more affected than others. The first is located north of Coutances, with hundreds of outages recorded by Enedis, mainly in the municipalities of Saint-Sauveur-Villages, Mesnilbus and La Vendelée. Around a hundred interventions are also underway in Coutances, Gouville-sur-Mer and Saint-Germain-sur-Ay.
And in the South Channel
Another very affected sector is located in the South Channel. There, the cuts number in the dozens in municipalities like Le Teilleul, Juvigny-les-Vallées, Sourdeval, Saint-Pois, Percy-en-Normandie and Brouains. Elsewhere, outages range from sporadic to quite numerous, such as in the municipalities of La Hague, Remilly-les-Marais and Torigny-les-Villes.
Quite often, Enedis promises a restoration of electricity at the end of the day, or even in the evening of this Friday. On a national level, Enedis aims “to resupply 90% of its customers in forty-eight hours”.
