Hurricane Irene knocked out power to nearly 1 million customers in Virginia; crews will continue restoring service today.

.

Dominion Virginia Power said on its website early today that more than 569,000 of its more than 2.4 million customers across the state were without power, down from 973,000 without service Sunday morning. That included about 371,000 customers in the Richmond metropolitan area, and 336,000 in southeastern Virginia. More than 47,000 in the Gloucester-Northern Neck area had no electricity. (View outage maps here.)

.

While the wind gusts were slightly higher near the coast, winds in the Richmond area gusted over a longer stustained period, from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Saturday, resulting in vast tree damage in the region, the utility said on its web site.

.

This morning there were more than 217,000 homes and businesses without service in Southeastern Virginia, incluidng the Peninsula. The company was reporting on its website that a little more than 60,000 customers were without power in northeastern North Carolina.

.

Dominion sent crews out early Sunday morning to assess the damage. The company says more than 5,000 workers are ready to respond to the outages.

.

Officials have said it could take more than a week to restore power to some parts of the state.
