<font color=red>P.M. Update</font> Power is a go in Marlow

Ron Booth

MARLOW — After a knockout punch from Mother Nature, the City of Marlow is back in the ring. More precisely, the town was off of generators and running from its own electric substation after an ice storm knocked out power Jan. 28.

"We are up and running from our own substation," Marlow City Administrator Janice Cain said. "We are off generators. People can operate as normal. We got off of generators at about 10 a.m. this morning."

Cain said that some citizens are still without power because their meters were knocked loose during the storm.

"We still have some individual meter connects," she said. "I don't know how many, but I would guess that it is 300-plus."

Marlow Public Schools will be back in session at regular times.
