Tens of thousands of households in central China's Hubei Province is experiencing power outages after heavy snow severely damaged the local grid.
Hubei Power Company dispatched four more rescue teams to disaster-hit Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture late Saturday to repair the grid.
As of Sunday morning, more than 17,000 workers and nearly 5,000 vehicles have been mobilized for the repair work, according to the company.
Snowstorm hit Enshi last Tuesday and Wednesday, bringing down nearly 9,000 electric poles, and destroyed transformers and other supporting facilities.
