NJSigfan 218 Posted March 3, 2018 We’ve been out for about an hour now. Hope the gennys gas lasts until 10ish Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lambo2936 297 Posted March 3, 2018 We lost power for all of 30 seconds before it kicked on. Not going to even pull the Genny out if we lose power, though. Too much work to dig it out, my garage is packed full of crap lol. Just light the fireplace and suck it up! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
InFamous 311 Posted March 3, 2018 But damn it Live PD is on in 1 hour 20 minutes! I NEED POWER! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frank Rizzo 59 Posted March 3, 2018 Ended up working late tonight. Internet went out around 11pm, right after I sat down in the recliner and grabbed the remote. Best luck ever. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brucin 923 Posted March 3, 2018 Came home after an 18.5 hour shift plowing and salting to no power. To lazy to start the genny. Lit kerosene heater and cracked open a few cold ones. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brucin 923 Posted March 3, 2018 Looks like Just Can't Provide Lights can't even provide a restoration estimate. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
InFamous 311 Posted March 3, 2018 My power came back on just before Live PD last night. Hope everyone stayed warm and gets their power back soon if you haven't already. Sounds super windy out there this morning. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NJSigfan 218 Posted March 3, 2018 Still no power in the Pittstown area of union township. Woke up to a house temp of 58 degrees. Jcpl has no estimate for restoration so for now it’s cycling the genny every few hours...fun times Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brucin 923 Posted March 4, 2018 Power came back on at 5:30. Good luck to everyone who's still out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scorpio64 5,156 Posted March 4, 2018 There's still over a million without power. It looks like the north west corner of NJ got hammered pretty badly.. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Our power stayed on the whole time, the neighborhood has underground utilities, so that apparently helps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WP22 1,558 Posted March 4, 2018 Lost it sometime on Friday-I wasn't home. Came home to cold and dark house. It came back sometime today between 12 and 3. My neighbor was chasing the JCP&L crews up and down the street for updates. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NJSigfan 218 Posted March 4, 2018 So I live near Clinton in a development that barely 20 years old. We have no above ground wiring and no where near what others would consider the “boonies”. Cable has been out since Friday am, power mid Friday afternoon. Estimates from say 1:30 today and Tuesday after respectively. for us it wasn’t the actual storm but the sheer number of trees that took out wires and transformer boxes in neighboring areas. What irks me is we still have friends and family with streets blocked from down wires and trees. People literally can not get off their streets/driveway to get food. How is that even acceptable in this day and age? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
