North Texas Oncor workers are preparing to head to the northeast as hundreds of thousands of power outages are expected when Hurricane Sandy hits.
Dozens of Oncor employees are heading to the East Coast Monday morning to start the 22-hour drive toward Baltimore, MD.
Around 60 workers are loading up the bucket trucks and service trucks, just as they did in August in Louisiana with Isaac.
Oncor crews will be helping Baltimore gas and electric restore power to thousands of customers expected to be hit by Hurricane Sandy.
Many people along the East Coast are stocking up on generators. Some expecting to be without power for a week.
Power companies are trying to avoid a repeat of Hurricane Irene last year when utilities were criticized for a slow response.
Companies are watching the storm's path trying to predict how many people will be without power and where to send relief crews. Some companies are talking about using aircraft to help quickly pin point problem areas.
Local Oncor workers spent the weekend getting ready. Oncor is also freeing up sixty additional contractors to help in Maryland and New York.
