Restoring power to all Manitoba Hydro customers who lost electricity during the storm that hit the province over the weekend has proved challenging, particularly around Dauphin.

The utility says additional crews will arrive in the Dauphin area this morning.

It said last night on social media that damage was still being assessed, noting the heavy snow that fell in the area was hindering progress.

Manitoba Hydro estimates up to 250 poles in the area will need to be replaced.
