Manitoba Hydro crews continue to work towards the goal of restoring full power to customers following Sunday night's powerful storm. 

Almost 3,000 customers without power Monday morning. By mid-afternoon that number was down to about 350.

Hydro spokesperson, Bruce Owen, said the focus of the work has now turned to getting the lights back on in rural and/or isolated areas, but notes those customers may remain in the dark into the evening.

Extra crews from Brandon were brought in to help with some of the repairs.
