Power outages have become a big issue across West Virginia.
The entire city of Elkins lost power at about 5 a.m. Tuesday morning.
Mon Power said it could take repair workers several days to restore power.
Business owners said they're just trying to get through it.
"We did get us a generator so we can get our power back on. We're in the logistics business we move freight all over the United States, so we're trying to get ready, but I don't know if any trucks will be moving," said D.J. Miller, of Reckhart Logistics.
Mon Power said as of 4:04 p.m. Tuesday, 15,886 customers are still without power in Randolph County.
