Northwestern Energy reports that Wednesday's heavy winds in Montana are extreme enough the utility can't keep up with its online outage map.

Northwestern spokesperson JoDee Black said the utility will try to restore the website Wednesday night.

She said if you see low-hanging power lines or lines down, report it on their website or call 888-467-2669.
