Con Ed Updates
Martin J. Golden
August 28, 2011
Con Edison continues to note that the can not send crews out yet as the
storm has not ended yet and there are many overhead outages - they must
wait for the wind to slow
-105,000 citywide without power
-11,750 in Brooklyn
Con Edison is cautiously optimistic as high tide has passed and bulk of the
rain has moved north -
-they will prioritize restorations based on which repairs will restore the
power to the most people
-there were no preemptive outages in Brooklyn - restorations could start
early afternoon but it could take several days
-there is an outage map on coned.com on the bottom left -"Storm Central"
and then you can click on Outage Information Map
-I reviewed the map for our district -looks like 306 customers in Dyker
Heights, 8 near Stillwell Avenue, 1 in Bay Ridge, 212 in the Ocean Parkway
area, 2133 by Avenue U near Marine Park (most of our area) and 1059 near
Knapp Street/Gerritsen Beach
Another call is at 2pm and will again update.
