From TECO: "With the help of 6,000 utility workers, we expect to restore power for essentially all customers in the coming days. Many will have power sooner; more extensive damage may take longer."

"Hillsborough and Pinellas customers - Thurs. 10/17 by 11:59 p.m."

Flooding can impact those as well if there's any damage to the stuff protecting the cables.
