Power outages are being reported this afternoon in various parts of the province, including Red Deer, Calgary, Edmonton, Lethbridge and Medicine Hat.

They did, however, tweet this message at 3:11 p.m.

We are currently experiencing an outage affecting multiple customers throughout our service area due to a loss of tie line from BC. We will keep you informed as we receive further information. @AltaLink @theAESO
