Dothan Utilities has received a national commendation from the American Public Power Association (APPA) for its help in restoring electricity to the Florida cities of Ocala and Bartow.
Dothan Utilities sent a crew of 10 line workers to help both cities, which experienced widespread outages from Hurricane Milton.
“Dothan has been a beneficiary to APPA’s mutual aid program, and we are always glad to help others because we know we may need help again in the future,” said Chris Phillips, the Dothan utilities Assistant Director of Electric Operations.
Through the City of Dothan’s partnership with Electric Cities of Alabama, Dothan Utilities participates in the American Public Power Association’s Mutual Aid Network, which coordinates with utilities and authorities during widespread power outages.
Another sunny but cool day on Friday, with highs today in upper 50s.
With clear skies and few clouds to hold in the afternoon heating, temperatures will fall rapidly after sundown and by Saturday morning lows should be just below freezing for most of the area.
Saturday: more of the same. A sunny day with slightly warmer temps as highs climb into the 60s.
Saturday night: cool but above freezing lows.
Sunday should bring increases in clouds but rains may not arrive here until after midnight.
Monday morning thunderstorms may linger until mid-day, but after rains move on, the upper air winds will push the lowest temperatures of the season into the South.
The coldest morning will likely be next Thursday, when temperatures may fall to near 20 degrees.
