If your power is out
Report it to your utility first, by app, text or phone; your report is what puts your street on the map. Keep fridges and freezers closed (food stays cold for about 4 hours in a fridge and 48 hours in a full freezer), unplug sensitive electronics, never run a generator indoors, and treat any downed line as live.
Coverage and limits
ODIN only includes utilities that choose to publish to it. In New Mexico that is 2 utilities; customers of any other utility (city-owned systems, many co-ops and some large investor-owned utilities) can be out of power without appearing here. Check your own utility's outage map to be sure.
Outages are reported per county by each utility and refresh about every 5 minutes. Storms are the most common cause of large outages; planned maintenance shows up as small, scheduled outages.
