We've heard from a few readers around East Sixth Street and Avenue C who lost their power late last night.
According to the ConEd outage map, there's a "manhole problem":
The estimated power return is 11 a.m.
Updated 9:30 a.m.
East Sixth Street between Avenue B and C is currently closed... and there are at least 15-18 ConEd trucks on the scene...
Updated 11:34 a.m.
ConEd is now estimating that the power will be restored by 3 p.m.
Updated 2:30
We're told that ConEd has restored the power.
So that means there will be 200 fewer "manhole" jokes in the Comments!
ReplyDeleteSixth street? You were warned! Someone was using running the air conditioner, the microwave and blow dryer at the same time.
ReplyDeleteWe- 7th and B- lost power last night- hot sleepless night- but got it back 10am today.
ReplyDeleteI think Con Ed is also cutting back supply. "Browning" out the neighborhood. My appliances and electrical equipment aren't operating properly....
