Get the candles and flashlights out, folks.
34,000 homes, farms and businesses are currently without power nationwide, according to the ESB.
Although progress has been made on existing faults in the greater Dublin area, new faults are still continuing to occur on networks due to Storm Emma.
Since Friday morning, 30,000 additional ESB customers have lost electricity, and worsening weather conditions in the south east means it will only be tomorrow (Saturday 3 March) before some customers get electricity back.
The main areas currently affected are Cork, Enniscorthy, Arklow, the greater Dublin area and eastern Leinster.
This follows Thursday night, when 24,000 homes and business were left without electricity nationwide.
At the peak of the faults, 117,000 homes and businesses were without electricity.
The largest fault occurred at Ringsend 110kV station in Dublin, one of the bulk electricity supply points for the east and south of Dublin City at 1.30am on Friday morning.
As a result, electricity was lost in 90,000 homes and businesses in parts of the city, but supply has been restored to almost all those affected.
As part of the National Emergency Co-Ordination Group (NECG), ESB Networks are working with the emergency services to ensure the safety of the public during the storm and assistance for ESB Networks is being co-ordinated through this group.
Information on power outages and restoration times are available on www.esbpowercheck.ie..
If customers have no internet access, they are asked to please call 1850 372 999. Customers should have their MPRN available to access recorded information specific to their location.
