Power Out

I'm on Oakview Avenuenear Prospect Street. Who else? Anyone know what's going on? (I doubt they can blame the weather for this one.)


Out on Oakland near prospect.


It's an homage to Sandy??? Just kidding. I hope it comes back soon!


I saw on FB that a tree is down on Prospect, maybe took some wires with it?

It was a huge tree!


Looks like activity at Prospect and Harvard. Light is out at Tuscan and Prospect. PSEG says estimated time for power up is 1245pm


Just came back on - good work!


Power restored on Courter.

When my kids were little, and they would ask, "how long until we get there," we would always say "three hours." I think PSEG always says two.



Unfortunately, I was working from home via remote access and now can't get back in, even though everything at home is working fine again and there was no power failure at my office (in Basking Ridge.) Trying to get in touch with someone there who will no doubt have to reboot my office computer causing me to lose what I was working on ... sigh!


Why not walk someone in your office through how to save your work on your office computer? Or head into the office yourself?

Tree came down on the curve of Prospect. Lots of activity and detours. Steer clear.

That's more or less what happened in the end. (But it relied upon the one person knowledgeable about some particular apps being there and, luckily he was.)

We saw it later in the day when we were walking home from having lunch at the Park Wood. Snapped this photo.
