I've been checking LIPA's updates all afternoon for the # of outages. Each time I've checked, the # was HIGHER!!!! THey are taking power away - not providing it!
At 4:50 they showed 462,801.
Half hour earlier, 461,447 and shortly before that, 460,000 (don't recall exact last digits).
Because sometimes you have to cut power to an area to make repairs to another. Have you guys never been through outages based on any kind of storm event?
I know two people in The Hampton Bays area who gained power and then lost it again.
My parents in W.Bab gained power earlier today and hopefully it stays that way since they've been in the freezing cold since Monday night....and they dont want to join me in Queens where we dont have to deal with LIPA's suckiness since its too far away from their jobs
I hate to be one of those ppl who left LI who brag about leaving but yeah, i'm pretty glad I did just about now.. Good luck to everybody and my prayers go out to anybody without power; its awful.

There numbers and maps are a waste of time for everyone involved.
