WPCNR THE POWER NEWS. From Consolidated Edison. November 2, 2012 UPDATED 7:30 A.M. E.D.T.:
Con Edison has restored more than 55,000 customers in Westchester by late Thursday evening. Almost 201,000 customers were affected by Hurricane Sandy in the county alone. Con Edison will continue to work around the clock to restore the remaining customers.
WPCNR notes, that more outages in White Plains are coming in to Con Ed. Over 1,000 more power outages in White Plains have been reported as of midnight. As of midnight, 9,156 White Plains customers are without power out of 23,854 Con Ed customers, and by this morning at 7:30 A.M. those customers out were whittle down to 9,039
Con Edison expects to restore the vast majority of customers by next weekend.
Con Edison faces several challenges in its Westchester restoration efforts, including the extensive damage in the area. This includes more than 3000 primary wires that are down and 500 roads that are currently blocked by fallen trees or other debris.
Con Edison is marshalling resources from near and far to conduct the largest customer restoration in its history. Contractors and mutual aid crews have been arriving or are en route from across the country. Crews specializing in tree cutting, repairing overhead lines and underground equipment, as well as damage assessment, are being assigned.
Con Edison continues system-wide restoration efforts for approximately 930,000 customers affected since the inception of the storm in both New York City and Westchester County.
Customers can report downed power lines, outages, and check service restoration status by computer or mobile device at www.conEd.com. They also can call 1-800-75-CONED (1-800-752-6633). When reporting an outage, it is helpful if customers have their Con Edison account number available, if possible, and report whether their neighbors also have lost power. Customers who report outages will be called by Con Edison with their estimated restoration times as they become available.
The company is advising its customers to pay close attention to reports from city and municipal officials. Con Edison is providing updates through the media as the storm restoration continues. Important information will be posted on the company's website, www.conEd.com.
