NYSEG reports power knocked out by Friday’s tornado had been restored to all Otsego County customers today. In Delaware County, only one customer remains without power.
The company and its sister, Rochester Electric & Gas, expect to have power restored to all customers across Central New York by midnight.
Twenty-four hours after a tornado hammered Otsego County, knocking down trees and creating hundreds of outages, 728 customers are still without power this hour, NYSEG reports.
Most of the outages were in the county’s northwest quadrant, from Fly Creek north to Springfield and west to Edmeston.
While restorations are progressing as quickly and safely as possible, the county said, there are still “a few isolated customers” in Otsego County, as well as Broome, Chenango, Delaware, Greene, Herkimer, Lewis, Madison, Oneida, Schoharie and Ulster counties.
