Poll: How Would You Rate the Storm Response of Your Utility Company?

It’s been three days since October’s snowstorm hit, bringing with it downed trees, power lines and more. 

When it comes to electricity, NYSEG reports that as of 12:30 this afternoon, 1,174 customers are still out in Bedford, 79 in Bedford Hills and 2,845 in Katonah. 

When compared with Hurricane Irene, Jim Salmon, NYSEG’s spokesman told Patch that, "They were certainly similar in that there was a lot of damage from both," Salmon said. "This one is significant damage and a lot of road closures that are making accessibility somewhat difficult—very difficult in some cases."

According to their website, most power is estimated to be restored by Friday, Nov. 4 at the latest. (To see the estimated restoration time by street, see here and click on your town.)
