The ESB says power should be restored by 2pm today.
47 homes and businesses in Laois remain without power this morning, as the clean up begins today after Storm Bram.
Strong winds continued to sweep northwards across the country overnight, but calmer conditions have returned this morning with all weather alerts now expired.
However motorists and farmers are being warned to remain alert for a continued risk from surface water, debris and fallen wires.
ESB crews worked late into the night restoring homes and businesses which lost power during yesterday's violent winds, and teams will be back out again this morning at first light.
The outages around Abbeyleix are expected to be resolved by 2pm this afternoon.
