This morning, the village and wider area remained without power and water. Treasa received an update from Uisce Éireann as to when it hoped to restore water. Jerry also spoke to Lisa Cox, who lives in Brosna; she feels they are living in a forgotten village. After this interview, ESB Networks contacted the show to say that some homes in the area may not have power restored until Friday. Up to 40 fallen trees in Brosna, particularly in Mount Eagle, have caused the outage and have contributed to the length of time it's taking to restore electricity.
