I am in Jackson, after being Evac'd from SSH, we are still without power.

Long Branch - no power - JCP&L won't tell us when. Respectfully, this is nothing like Katrina. The comparison insults our intelligence. We in Monmouth County are not living below sea level; there are no broken levees; there are, thank God, no mass casualties. When this is over, I hope our elected officials conduct an appropriate inquiry into JCP&L's conduct. In particular, JCP&L should be compelled to disclose its pre-storm planning, its post-storm recovery plans, and how it determined which neighborhoods to restore (and which to ignore). All of that is a secret as of now - which inevitably raises suspicions. What is JCP&L hiding from the public?

Forked river..thank you, thank you jcp&l !!! Came on this morning around 7:30. Watching the news for the first time, cant believe the devastation. My prayers to families that lost homes and everything they owned. So sad.

I live in Lawrenceville by the Brunswick Circle. My power has been on since Wednesday evening. My parents, however, live on over by Dunkin Donuts on Princeton Pike and are still without power. I called PSEG last night-it was about 2am when I called and they immediately picked up (just a note for those trying to get through to them). They told me a substation was under 6ft of water. They were 80-90% done repairing that and then they would concentrate on the areas still affected by the outage. They also told me that on Rt. 130 headed towards Bordentown there were 20 utility poles down and that area was hit hard. So he said anywhere from Friday to Sunday-worst case scenario. More like Friday or Saturday. Hope this helps...

We only lost power for a few hrs during the whole storm... Cable returned yesterday morning.... We were blessed... But my heart does go out to those who still don't have it... My job lost it and my paycheck will be nil... :-(

No power and JCPL sucks. They knew this would happen again.

Transformers went out,trees took down hundreds of lines, sub stations went out, there is only so much they can do so fast. They wre out working as soon as it was safe and the trees were cleared.

Has PSE&G ever published how they determine their power restoration priority, what is their recovery plan? When did they test their plans last. What preventive measures have they taken since.

Thoughts to ponder.

My kid has asthma and was coughing all night. North Edison has power and they are a block away from me. Parts of colonia have it and others don't. Wish we knew a rhyme or reason to who gets online and how parts of towns do or don't. Can't even find a hotel room in the area. Ready to bug out to family in Albany and just call out sick until the power is on. All of us are getting sick now from the cold night air. Wish there was a delivery of kerosene heaters int local hardware stores. We could get through the nights

No power in Pt. Pleasant. Have seen jcp&l trucks, also trucks from Ohio "the illuminating company" have only seen jcp&l trucks driving or sitting in parking lots. No work being done. They are getting paid ridiculous amounts of overtime "working" for 16 hours. Funny how out of all the trucks I've seen I have not seen one person outside of these trucks actually working.

Hey everyone -- APP.com has a list of the numbers of each town, and how the power outage numbers compare from wednesday to today. IE, Middletown went from 28,000 to 25,000 between Wednesday and today. Look for your town here: http://www.app.com/viewart/20121031/NJNEWS/310310045/

No power in Westfield. Pse&g giving us a Nov 9 estimate for restored power!! That just changed this AM.

I just returned home after waiting on along queue (nearly 5 hours) to get fuel at the Hess station on Main St. We still have no power, and New Jersey American Water is restricting usage trying to prevent a water shut-down, which may still happen.

Anyone heard about whether there is power in Keansburg yet? I am on Seeley Avenue, i have a sick grandson and the nights are getting cold... I'm just asking, i realize there are tens of hundreds of thousands of people in the same boat... Remember all, these power company guys and gals are busting their butts to help us all... If it were that easy of a job to do we would all be doing it... Thanks very much to all who have helped someone during this storm and aftermath... If everyone did just one kind or nice thing for another things wouldn't be so tough for everyone... Is there any open gas stations near Keansburg who has gas? I am almost out and need to make it to work tomorrow (i am writing this from work right now)... Any helpful comments would be appreciated...Good luck to us all!!!

Someone called the manufacturer and was told if she doesn't have a service contract then she is at the bottom of the list for repair. She refuses to leave her house.

Bayville in Mill Creek Area-bordering Pine Beach and Ocean Gate. Chelsea Ave.. We lost power just after 1 PM on Monday and re gained it between 8 and 9 pm Tuesday.

No power in east freehold. It seems like the the people complaining are the ones that are not prepared. I ask you this. If your bill was 1500 a month and they could restore power in 24 hrs, would you pay? This was a major storm. A 100 year storm. Where you prepared. I think not.

Pete H

Does Freehold over by Schank road have power?

Laurel knolls section of Brick/Howell no power since the storm hit

i don't know if this helps anyone but if you go to JCP&L website and click on the Storm link, you can find out and approximate time you can expect the electric to be back on.

Does anyone know if there's power in Covered Bridge in Manalapan? Thank you!

Union , NJ - no power. I live in Troy village and there is a huge tree down at the end of Troy Drive and Baltrusol (?). I haven't seen one truck or crew over there to dis-entangle that tree from the power lines. There is no way the power lines can be prepared until that tree is removed. No tsure why tree removal isnt happening faster.

JCP&L is supposed to be working around the clock 24/7. I haven't seen anyone, not one truck in Springfield.

However even without Sandy, the electrical grid in Springfield is not that great. There is a transformer on a telephone pole near me , and that has to be the oldest thing I have ever seen. Sometimes it hums. It has to be from the turn of the century (not this one; the last one - like the 1900's).

We are in Battlegrounds in Manalapan and power went on around noon.

Anyone know if power is back on Fleming Ave in Pt Pleasant?

Sylvan lake section of Bayville. Still out. Saw township cleaning up downed trees and branches but no sign of JCP&l. They were down in lacey but not in Bayville yet. The trucks I did see just parked doing nothing

Anyone know about Colts Neck? My folks are there, and I live in Atlanta now...it sucks being away.

No power in West End. Where r you JCP L?

Yesterday I read that JCP&L was hoping to have most of the power restored within the next 7 days to 2 weeks. Today, I saw a report saying something else:

"Meanwhile, along the New Jersey Shore, there was no timeline for restoring power service, owing to widespread damage to facilities and power lines that serve neighborhoods and people's homes, a spokesman for Jersey Central Power & Light said."
from: http://www.nasdaq.com/article/utilities-struggle-to-get-lights-on-amid-widespread-storm-damage-20121031-01517#.UJLrtnaYNRR

We have always been seeing this magic number/timeline from JCP&L every day - "7 days" till expected return of power... does anyone know when does this "7 days" countdown from? It seems its always "7 days" away everyday the estimate is made....

No power in Toms River by High School South. Trying to be a good sport but I'm over this, especially since we lost it Monday afternoon and no trucks to be seen.

Peter, I would be willing to bet that part of the delay is that the total damage has yet to be assessed, and that they are working on block infrastructure first - shelter locations, hospitals, responder facilities, etc. I am also sure that there is far more disorganization than necessary, but WHO plans for a catastrophic loss of the entire infrastructure - in the vernacular, it sucks - no doubt. Hang on...they're coming.

None on kennebec......

Anyone know if power is back in toms river near walnut street

The entire state lost power. It's going to take more than 4 days to get your precious power back. Some people lost their homes and worse yet, loved ones. You should be ashamed of yourselves for complaining about 4 days without power.

Peter - no power in colts neck for 7-10 days according to mayor (that's what he told my boyfriends mom when he was driving around town accessing damage) We live in Aberdeen and have fingers crossed because we heard power may be restored here tonight or tomorrow.

Some people have kids with asthma and they are getting sick from not having heat. Others have respiratory medical equipment that are not working.

East Brunswick, near the Brunswick Square Mall. No power, but my neighbors around the block have it - sooooo close!

Thanks JCP&L We are back up and running. Section of Guilford Park. Sooner than expected!

No power in the entire area of Princeton Ave in Brick NJ since Monday around 12:30 Pm. No communication from JCP&L. At least we are safe, some people that have generators now have to watch out for generator thieves stealing them to make a buck. I can't believe some would sink that low.

Ocean Gate: Entire town, nothing.

No power in Fair Haven. But I saw 5 out of state electric trucks on Rte 35 coming into Red Bank this morning. A JCP&L representative told my husband that 40 out-of-state trucks are expected today.

no power in my section of beachwood and i live next to a traffic light, we are told prob not till next wednesday

OMG... Pt pleasant boro by middle school/ little league field just got power! The whole neighborhood is cheering! 3 long days!

the Barnegat web site say that the only people without power are east of rt 9 which is not true. i know for a fact that parts of ravenwood blvd are still without power. I guess they will say anything to make them self look better. i guess that just i know who i'm voting for now. not the one who make things up on the township web site.

I live in the Bayshore section (wet side of Rt 36). Our power is still out. Why does those who withstood the brunt of the storm appear to still have to suffer no power...? Go figure !

Bob's my cousin. :-)

heard everything south of applefarm rd. in middletown is back up -- can anyone confirm this? red hill/oak hill/chapel hill/navesink areas -- are these up?? if so, there are some gas stations on rt. 35 north @ chapel hill rd./oak hill rd. that will hopefully be pumping soon.

Aspen Circle in Barnegat seams to be the only street in the surrounding area without power. Everyone else has power in the area since the last 2 days. But we finally have cable and internet. Glad we brought a generator when we did this past summer.

No power still in Scotch Plains. Not a PSEG truck or tree removal truck in sight. I realize a lot of people do not have power but PSEG isn't even saying Union County power is out or being assessed. With two small kids and being a single mom this is getting scary as it is getting colder and colder and noone we know has any power.

the Barnegat web site say that the only people without power are east of rt 9 which is not true. i know for a fact that parts of ravenwood blvd are still without power. I guess they will say anything to make them self look better.

Pleasant Plains, Toms River. Area near rt 571 and rt 9 intersection. My power came on at 4 this morning, for which I am thankful. However, senior community next door, Gardens of Pleasant Plains, still has no power. Am happy to have power but think the senior community should have priority. There are some very elderly people there.

Most of Island Heights had power restored around 5 pm today. Some people who live near the Cozy Cove Marina in IH had to have power cut due to the damage to the boats left there will all the gas and oil leaking.

All of you that are complaining are beyond pathetic.... Big deal you don't have power for a week. You were probably the same people rushing to the grocery store before the storm buying perishables without the common sense to realize that they were going to go bad. I am quite certain that PSE&G as well as JCP&L are doing the best they can as well as all of the local townships to get your power back. I'm in Scotch Plains - now power yet and they're estimating another 5-7 days and I would much rather someone's home or life be saved then for me to be able to watch an episode of Jersey Shore. Go spend time with your family....read a book....have a conversation....help your neighbor clean up their yard. And if you need medical attention - go find it....there are plenty of places offering it while you're on this site complaining that you don't have a hair dryer. And if you have a generator or electricity why don't you offer to have your friends and neighbors spend a night with you? It's certainly not the fault of a power company or any politician that you didnt prepare for this.....

When will we get power back in Hazlet, NJ?

Is there power in the ramtown section of Howell?

Finally there is a power in marlboro on rt 9 . Costco is open

Nicole ....gmw.....read......BRICK PATCH..... not hazlet patch or howell patch!

Stonehedge section of Silverton.. we amazingly never lost power.

Any one know when mountainside will have power

I am minutes from Brick...

Very impressive Atlantic City Electric. Our power went out at 5:31 p.m. on Monday and returned at 7:30 a.m. on Tuesday. We were delighted!!!

No power here in West Belmar, but we are doing fine....it's gonna take a while to get everything back, lines down, poles snapped etc... They will get it done. Me and my family are safe and that's all that matters, made out much better than a lot of people.

I am still without power on East Bay Ave, Barnegat. It seems like Bayshore to East Bay east of Rt. 9 are still without power. However, crews are in the area and I am sure they will light us up as soon as they can. My prayers go out to all who are suffering through this devastation. May God Bless Us All.

Still no power btwn union hill & pension since mon!! No power,heat & hot water ridiculous!!!

tinton falls power came back an hour ago

Did Any one in holmdel get power back yet?

no power, no mail delivery, since Monday

We've been without power in Matawan since 1pm on Monday. Has anyone heard from the Mayor of Matawan ? Other townships their mayors are communicating to their residents about locations to recharge cell phones ,,updates on power repairs.and even places to get a hot cup of coffee. Basically offering moral support during a difficult time. It's called leadership. Nothing for Matawan. Our super high tax dollars at work. We're on our own.

Any news from long branch atlantic ave/pleasure bay area?

Does any one know if Pheasat Run Community Kent Drive in Forked River Nj has power

I live on Austin Ave Off of Burnt Tavern Rd In Brick, No power since Monday
Afternoon! Any idea when it will be restored?

It kills me that people are complaining about gas yet using their generators to watch TV and run their dishwasher. Additionally, this is huge. In order to get power the workers have to do more than flip a switch. They are doing the best they can. At least someone is working and not crying because they can't get on Facebook. Lastly, if we treated the earth with slightly more respect and didnt consume resources at a hoggish rate none of us would be in this situation.

Desperately seeking a power update for home in the upper highlands along route 36. Been 3 days and have not heard one single thing.
Please?
Don't keep us in the dark, we are starving for information.

Hello,

I wanted to donate food/clothes to the victims of the hurricane. I am not sure where I can bring my donations. Any information? It is sad watching people in our state running out of food and with no clothes. Thanks

Any information on power for lions head south adult community in brick?????

Does anyone know if the meadow creek khov homes in manalapan got their electricity back. Thank you.

Colonia section of Woodbridge-- we got power back on Wednesday evening around six, and lost it again tonight (Thursday) around eight. At least we all got to take hot showers and check the news, but it seems strange that they'd just turn it off again.

My mom, in Holmdel, by the hospital got power back tonight at 8:00.

For those that can get to route 78. Its a 2 hr round trip to gas and groceries in PA. May be quicker than the gas lines in Union county. May also find gas cans for sale still in PA. I did see UPS in Fanwood today. . .so amazon may also be able to deliver if notnyou then use a friends address. Worth a look for generator supplies and canned goods. Good luck all.

I live in East Windsor and everyone around us has power except us. On Main St by Peddie there are 2 JCP&L employees in a pick up looking at a tree that is down on electric lines. Talk about being ripped off. On Conover there are trees down for days and no one is doing crap about it. Hey I pay a ton of taxes an they can care less. Get me my power back, pleaseeeeee. I am tired of getting ripped off.

9:30pm on Thursday. Still no power. But my family is all good:)

Windsong Circle in East Brunswick - no power!

Was the substation on Drum point rd in brick severely damaged? No power for half of drum point .

No power in Eatontown yet though I understand it's not an overnight process. Thank you to all the hard working linemen who are out restoring power in the cold and wind and away from their own families. A storm of this proportion caused more damage than anyone will really know until everything is up.

Greenbriar in Brick no power. Are seniors no longer a priority? I am ok going without, but they should be helped!

from everyone I spoke with PSEG makes JCPL look pretty bad. Work can only go so fast but the lack of good communication is terrible.

Summit Ave in Toms River.....Money Island section of Toms River.........help !

Brick, Birch Drive, off of Bay Laurel. No power, since 4pm Monday. Thanx to neighbors for sharing their generator to keep fridge cold, and help us communicate.

yes! If JCPL communicated as well as our neighbors it might clear things up and calm people down.

Still no power. Old Bridge turnpike and sunset in East Brunswick

No power in South Brunswick, Royal oaks apt's, Twin Oaks Court

no power in newbrunswick projects i really need to getin contact with my moms plss hurry so she knows dat im ok please hurry and turn it on havent hurd from her ever since

I just realized I owe Peter an apology, but not for the reason he thinks. I didn't realize that he has not really seen how bad it is out there, since he has no power - a cellphone screen isn't getting it done.

I've heard union hill by rt 918 is noe closed off by power company trucks working...has anyone heard if this is true and/or if we mught see power to the sherwood neighborhoods soon?

"Rt 9" is what that should say

Crystal drive brick, lake riviera, brick. Lost power 8pm Monday, restored 930pm Tuesday.

Just got power in Princeton

No power in matawan it would be nice to hear more than 7-10Days from jcpl and matawan. What are the issues and what are they working on. That would be nice some communication thats meaningful.

Anyone around exit 120 vicinity....elderly relatives live near the old bridge/matawan border....no power....freezing cold in their house. I understand they are not the only ones, but it is scary to have 80 year old people shaking under blankets for days. Shelters will not accept you unless you have major damage or loss of home. Thankfully they only have minor damage, but no help for ppl in their predicament.

I live in east Windsor and I'm still without power, I'm freezing

Cream Ridge, near Millstone. JCPL. No power since 3:45 Monday. No running water (well). No generator. Postal Service and Waste Management trash pickup has been on time. Does anyone know how toilet use impacts a septic system when thee is no power to pump from tank to field?

I live in toms river of ocean county, and we still have no power.

Any news on when knob hill will have power? A lot of places around rt 33 have power and so does battleground but we do not yet.

My ten-year-old tells me that 160,000 is 14.545% of 1.1 million, not "about 20%," and wonders what else inaccurate the electricity company is telling us.

Restored in wlb

Unfortunately, JCPL waited until Tuesday afternoon to apparently begin a 24-36 hour "assessment period." After that, more time was spent drafting a plan.

Instead of heading out Tuesday and working on the hospitals and other essential facilities, they drove around and wrote reports. Much of the "restored" residential power they are chest thumping about is power that was shut down to avoid any potential problems if lines went down.

Anyone have any idea when power will be restored in manalapan area btwn union & pension?.. My kids r freezing & I still don't have power,heat & hot water!! This isn't 3rd world country very frustrating & cold!!

Does anyone know if Dorsett Dock Rd in Pt. Boro has power? Over by the high school?

When is all of old bridge power back on?

Jordan rd.and nicholas rd.in jordan park section of brick..STILL NO POWER!!

Ppl, especially elderly, are going to start to get hyperthermia in their own homes. That can set in with temps in the low 60s. This is no joke. I know ppl have bigger problems than just being cold, but it IS a big problem when temps drop like this. Not enough help being offered.

I know how band this storm was im sorry for all people who lost homes and family but i have a question does anyone know if glenwood apartments have power yet please someone let me know thanks and again sorry for everyone loss in this crap storm:(

Greenbriar in brick no power!! elderly mom TAKES INSULIN THAT NEEDS TO BE REFRIGERATED!!!!!

All of princeton ave. and surrounding areas no power as of monday 2pm

Any eta for knob hill in manalapan would be awesome

No power off of Dutch Neck Rd. in East Windsor but most of town has been restored so we are hopeful. We bought a generator at Lowes today to get by- worth the 4- hr. escapade to find a gas container.

No power yet in englishtown. I cannot get in touch with Family for 4 days. I pray that power is restored soon to avoid more fatalities. I have family with breathing problems and I just don't know how they are.

Along northern stretch of great Rd in Princeton between Princeton Day School and cherry valley Rd no power yet.

First off let me start by saying im so sorry for the people who lost family members cars stores houses and everything my prayer goes out to them i have a question i know this storm was bad and i know there is so much to fix i totally understand i know they have more important things to fix first like hospitals and stuff like that i just was wondering does anyone know when glenwood apartments in old bridge nj will have full power?if you can tell me someone i would really be grateful thanks everyone have a great day and i wish you the best

Power came back on in Strickland Farms in Freehold at around 11:30 pm Thursday night. If people don't know where that is, it's a 380 unit townhouse community about half a mile west of Route 9 near the Freehold/Howell border. Good luck to everyone.

Civic Center, by the municipal buildings, in East Brunswick - still no power or heat since the storm. Apt complex housing many seniors and elders.

fios workes plug in your network for internet and phone and news ,always works

Pt. Boro south of Bridge Ave. We've had power since 430 Thursday Afternoon, after being off since Monday.

To everyone asking where to make donations ... Union Beach, NJ. Union Ave Fire Dept is accepting donations for EVERYTHING for the families who lost everything. Thank you for your generosity

Still no power in the Aldrich Estates section of Howell. We still have a tree across Lake Dr.

Manalapan always looses power, storm or not. We requested jcp&l to do an assessment as to why- their answer? We have Manu issues in the area!
They need to be investigated by the government for their practices. I am sure we will be without power for another week. It is dispicible that they can't give anyone updates.

Still no power for us on Princeton Pike in Lawrenceville!! PSEG now says November 13!! What a joke!!

I am in Woodbridge, Park Section. No power yet. It's Friday 11-02-12.

Can anyone please tell me if power has been restored in the Holiday City West area off of Jamica Blvd. Can't get through to my elderly parents!

Bay Bridge Village off Millpond and Burnt Tavern Road still no power

On tuesday they say 7 to 10 days to restore power..then 3 days later they still say 7 to 10 days...shouldn't it be 4 to 6 days by now?

Any power in Shrewsbury?

No power day 4 conover road east windsor, wary and Home Depot down the street have power for days and not from generators since at least yesterday !

we have always made fun and mockery about other countries when unfortunate things like this happen. Example: Entire country of India had lost power earlier this year due to power grid failure. Media was all over the place. Blaming, condeming and calling 3rd world country and many more.

The entire country was back in less than 12 hours.

And here in NJ, we are still struggling to see the power coming back and it has been over 4 days. Lack of efficient employee and management is what screws thing up. I am pretty sure all the higher up in PSEG and JCPL will get their huge bonuses. NJ Govt never put pressure on these companies....not at once. NJ govt is corrupt and not capable of handling disaster situations. period!

Hi everyone- I live in Connecticut (my family is in Keyport/Matawan) and can sympathize with your situation. This time last year we were out of power for 11 days due to storm Alfred, so I know your frustration. Luckily we had no lasting damage to our home or cars. My thoughts are with you, especially those who lost everything.

I would like to know how the big meeting and bear hugs between Obama and Christie are helping JCP&L restore power to the area? I see how awe struck both were viewing the disaster from the air, and how awestruck Christie was being in Obama's presence.....so, where is the help? Specifically? Obama said he'll fly in C-130 transports, etc....yada yada yada........we need ACTION !

Alabama utility workers turned away from NJ because they were non union workers? Is this true? Half of drum point still w/o power.

No power in eatontown east, unless u have underground. Today i was just told next y next wed! May e time to make utility cos to install underground. We cant call our pd the code messages only tell us dont call and now cant go out after 7pm. Need some answers, there techs are online with utility. Gas stations lines 2had to3 hours if they have power and gas.

No power still in Long Branch (West End), though adjacent areas of West LB were restored yesterday. Worse, absolutely no info from JCP&L about how long it will be. Trying the website (fatuous identical message of " a week or two weeks or longer" for every towm in the county), email to PSE&G (like anyone will respond...), municipal website (hah!). did find http://blogs.wsj.com/metropolis/2012/10/31/power-companies-face-long-soggy-repair-effort/ which yielded a grain of truth: "Meanwhile, along the New Jersey Shore, there was no timeline for restoring power service, owing to widespread damage to facilities and power lines that serve neighborhoods and people’s homes, a spokesman for Jersey Central Power & Light said." So, whom do we believe - the gibberish on their website that says "majority online within a week," or their spokesman addressing financial markets (and likely required by securities law to be truthful)? Is there or is there not a timeline?

It's true. Full story is on a Huntsville Al website , TV 48, I think the website is waff.com.

Any news on Cheesequake Village in Matawan (Old bridge)?

Yes they were turned away what a shame

Power company fixing down huge tower lines fown, substations drying out, and then can get lines up after trees and debris are removed by the townships. Haven't seen my husband since storm hit so please know they are working and tired. I heard that they are starting to get low on fuel themselves for the trucks.

Lawrence Square Village - No Power yet!

FYI: Jersey Shore Hurricane News
‎#njsandy Getting bombarded by questions asking, "How come you're not reporting the story about the non-union workers from Alabama getting turned away from Seaside Heights?" Here's why: All media reports that are currently circulating are only going off one source (WAFF.com). Jersey Central Power & Light spokesman Ron Morano told News12 that JCP&L has accepted help from all crews. "We have not turned away any help," he said. "Absolutely not." Please always consider the source!

Herbertsville section of Brick is dark and cold...

No power in Whisperwoods, S. Brunswick since Monday Oct. 29th. I am not saying PSE&G is not working hard and I am very gratful to all the out of state contractors sent to help.My thoughts and prayers are also with the many folks who lost so much more than just their power.... But got to tell you I am cold and getting cranky... lol would to see one PSE&G truck working in our area.

HOLMDEL: no electrical power. Rt. 35 is a mess. Good response by the Gov. and Prez getting things moving in this huge disaster. Could not have done more. may need some national guard if things are prolonged.

Garwood has no power. My husband has been going back and forth to work and says he hasn't even seen any utility trucks working in Garwood and he thinks Westfield is still without power too? It seems that Cranford has power though and they are right next to us so that gives me hope :)

Power is being restored in the Middletown area fairly quickly within the last half hour alone!! We just got our nack 15 minutes ago!!!

Anyone know if the Brookwood Townhomes hear Toys R Us in Eatontown have power yet?

Princeton power seems to be coming back slowly. My street, Woodland Drive,
has 4 downed poles and a tangle of wires yet, & might take a while longer.

Not doubting the effort or hard work but the lack of communication from JCP&L is just wrong. Flat out wrong.

No Power in Springfield, NJ. But friends in neighboring towns Union, Summit and Mapelwood have power.

I work out in Moorestown NJ and while going in to work today and yesterday I watched over 20 electrical trucks in separate convoys from other states head towards the Jersey Shore on 195.

Why is Pseg turning away non-union help? They turned away a crew from Alabama. So that crew is now helping long island instead. Just goes to show you they just care about their own interest and not the customer.

Sandpiper off of Gordon's Corner Rd got power back this morning at 4AM.

Toms River off of Fischer. Power has been out since early Monday. Have not seen a truck anywhere fixing anything. Not a thing on Fischer is open but the Rite Aid and the 4 Seasons Diner. Five days without power is just too much. I know others have it so much worse, I have thrown out food from 2 refrigerators and freezers and I am fighting to keep my birds warm. JCP&L is the worst!!!!!!

Any news on College Park in Freehold?

11/2/2012 at 11:30am - Still no power in Holmdel. Friends drove through many side streets this morning en route back from Hazlet and report seeing NO power trucks and NO vehicles removing fallen trees from the roads. Gives appearance that power companies have placed Holmdel on lower priority for power restoration compared with Hazlet, Red Bank, Middletown, Keansburg.
