What to do now
  • Report your outage to Ameren even if neighbors already have: Ameren outage reporting. Reports on Outage Desk do not reach the utility.
  • Stay away from downed wires and anything touching them. Call 911 if a wire is down.
  • Generators go outside only, at least 20 feet from doors and windows, never in a garage. Carbon monoxide poisoning is one of the leading causes of death after storms.
  • Keep the fridge and freezer closed. Food in a closed fridge stays safe about 4 hours; a full freezer about 48 hours.
  • Long outages: some utilities reimburse spoiled food and medicine after extended outages. Check Ameren's claims page for current rules before you throw anything away.
