NYSEG OUTAGES UPDATE:
Wednesday August 5th @ 3:00 PM
Town representatives continue to get regular updates from NYSEG and as of early this afternoon, 555 customers within the Town are still without power. NYSEG crews are continuing to work around the clock in order to restore power. If the weather forecast remains favorable for today and tomorrow as predicted, estimated restoration time for all customers is by 11:00PM tomorrow night.
NYSEG has asked that we remind people to please stay away from any down lines or wires. Assume any wire is live and can result in a person being harmed. NYSEG also asks that if you feel you must speak with a member of a crew that you keep proper social distancing in accordance with COVID -19 practices.
