Con Ed Estimates 8.30 p.m. for Restoration of Remaining Bronx Power Outages following Storm
Con Edison crews are continuing the repair of equipment and the restoration of power for customers affected by the recent four-day heat wave and subsequent storm, the company confirmed on Thursday, July 1. Con Ed officials said their crews have worked non-stop, often in extreme heat conditions, in order to return power to customers who experienced outages over the course of the recent heat wave. About 1,000 customers remained out of service as of the Thursday afternoon, out of a total of 3.5 million customers, meaning the majority of customers were unaffected by the heat and the storm.
