FPL Restores More Than 65% Customers Affected by Hurricane Helene; Works Around-the-clock to Get the Lights on for All Customers
The latest: Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) continues restoring power for customers after Hurricane Helene battered the state as a powerful Category 4 storm. The large storm brought severe weather to most of the state and caused widespread outages before making landfall overnight. Crews have already restored power to more than 65% of customers affected by Helene, yet its devastating winds, heavy rainfall, significant flooding and dangerous storm surge have created restoration challenges in impacted areas.
最新消息：佛羅里達力量&光公司（FPL）繼續爲客戶恢復電力，颶風海倫襲擊該州，是一場強大的四級颶風。這場大風暴給州內大部分地區帶來了惡劣天氣，在夜間登陸前造成了大範圍的停電。在海倫影響下，工作人員已經爲超過65%的受影響客戶恢復了電力，但其毀滅性的風力、暴雨、嚴重洪水和危險風暴潮在受影響地區造成了恢復挑戰。
Why it matters: Hurricane Helene impacted millions of Floridians as it approached and made landfall in the state and left hundreds of thousands of FPL customers without power. FPL is committed to restoring power and getting life back to normal for all customers safely and as quickly possible.
重要性：颶風海倫影響了數百萬佛羅里達居民，在接近並登陸該州時，導致數十萬FPL客戶斷電。FPL致力於儘快安全地恢復電力，讓所有客戶的生活儘快恢復正常。

A word from FPL President and CEO Armando Pimentel: "Though our system held up well and our team of thousands continues to work around-the-clock, some of our customers remain without power. To them, we have a simple message: We will not stop until your lights are back on."
FPL總裁兼首席執行官阿曼多·皮門特爾表示：「儘管我們的系統表現良好，我們數千名團隊仍在全天候工作，但一些客戶仍在停電。對於他們，我們有一個簡單的信息：我們將不停止，直到您的燈亮起來。」
What FPL is doing:
佛光公司正在採取以下行動：
- Restoring power as part of its around-the-clock restoration efforts.
- Continuing to assess damage, including using drones to speed restoration.
- Coordinating with local emergency management officials to clear roads for lineworkers.
- Working to provide estimated times of restoration for customers. More information will be provided later today.
- 作爲其全天候恢復努力的一部分，正在恢復電力。

What customers should do after the storm:
風暴後的客戶應該做什麼：
- Safety is FPL's top priority for its crews and customers. Even when the winds subside, conditions can be dangerous. Customers should continue to heed warnings from local emergency officials.
- Stay far away from downed power lines, flooding and debris; assume that lines are energized.
- Use extreme caution while driving. Power interruptions may cause traffic signals to stop working without warning. If you come to an intersection with a non-working traffic signal, Florida law requires that you treat it as a four-way stop.
- If you are using a portable generator, follow the manufacturer's recommendations for proper use. Never operate a generator inside your home or garage.
- Immediately after a storm, FPL knows where power is out, so there is no need to contact FPL.
- If customers encounter dangerous situations such as downed power lines or sparking electrical equipment, they should call 911 or 1-800-4-OUTAGE (1-800-468-8243).
- 安全是FPL公司對其員工和客戶的首要任務。即使風力減弱，條件仍可能危險。客戶應繼續聽從當地應急官員的警告。
- 遠離斷電線路、洪水和碎片；請假設線路通電。
- 在駕駛時要極度小心。斷電可能會導致交通信號突然停止工作。如果遇到交通信號不工作的路口，佛羅里達法律要求您將其視爲四向停車。
- 如果使用便攜式發電機，請遵循製造商的指南進行正確使用。切勿在家裏或車庫內操作發電機。
- 風暴過後，FPL知道哪裏停電，因此無需與FPL聯繫。
- 如果客戶遇到危險情況，如倒下的輸電線或發出火花的電氣設備，則應撥打911或1-800-4-OUTAGE（1-800-468-8243）。
