A utility says thousands of customers have lost power in southwestern Oklahoma as a winter storm moves through the region.

The Public Service Company of Oklahoma's website shows between 6,000 and 10,000 customers without power as of Monday afternoon, though the number fluctuates.

Spokesman Ed Bettinger says most of the problems have cropped up along the I-40 corridor. He says the company doesn't yet know how long it'll take to restore power.

A winter storm has been slowly moving through the state's western half, dumping a foot of snow in some places and bringing strong winds. Public officials say even road-clearing crews are having trouble, and Bettinger says that will be factor into how long restoration takes.
