Adams Ave. has no power...

BTW, about two minutes after I posted this, JCP&L updated its estimates. Now, they say, 46 households won't get power til Saturday. I have put that in the story.

285 Long Hill has no power

The area near Hartshorn Drive (the western part), Western Drive, Oxford and Cambridge got its power back yesterday night. That is decent progress considering that earlier the same day there were still fallen trees resting on the wires and totally blocked roads. I wonder whether this means nearby Hartshorn school was also restored, in which case we can start second-guessing the decision to close that school tomorrow.

Glen Ave from brookside down to the last house before the library is out. Thanks Laura for offering to compile outages. I called the police dept on Saturday to suggest they do this for 2 reasons: 1) since JCP&L seems to be cancelling outage reports & 2) for security purposes since some there are not even street lights. Also suggested it to Robert Tillotson this morning. Additionally, my wife spoke to a rep from congressman frelinghuysens office who said jcpl has provided our township leadership with street by street power restoration. I emailed Tim Gordon to see who has it but no answer from him.

At 9:00am apartment complex on Woodland was still out - not sure about 12:30pm, since I'm at work.

In light of the recent power outages due to downed trees/winds in both Irene and last weekend's storm- is it really too cost prohibitive to move the power lines underground?

South Terrace does not have power.

Why don't we have this?
Laura, have you seen this? From New Providence...JCPL.

Just because Springfield posted a street by street list with estimated dates, doesn't mean they actually stick to that schedule. We're currently renting an apartment in Short Hills Village, which is in Springfield, and according to their list we were supposed to get power yesterday. Still without power today.

JCP&L has proven for the second time that they drag their feet in crisis situations. Don't know that PSE&G would be any better for the township. After Irene it took PSE&G 5 days to begin clean up and repair of the down wires and trees on Wyoming Ave. JCP&L wouldn't touch it because Wyoming is a county road, and PSE&G had Wyoming at the bottom of their priority list. I have no doubt that within the next couple of months at least one of our local politicians will take the lead and create a plan for situations like this. The township official that comes up with a solution will endear themselves to the community and most likely will be elected and re-elected for many years to come. I see no reason to give JCP&L a strike three scenario. It's hard to blame those in office as I know they've been getting the runaround and have been given mass amounts of misinformation. However, if no crisis plan is presented to the township in the near future, we the residents will take it upon ourselves to clean house and elect people that will get the ball rolling in the right direction. In the meantime, it's been almost a week and people are still cold, and in the dark! I don't know our options, but I feel we must rid ourselves of JCP&L and go in another direction.

Windermere Terrace and Lakeview Avenue still NO power

The list of homes makes no sense. There is a single home on Chatham Road. Not 22!

203 White Oak Ridge Road has a live wire down on our property and no power. JCP&L said Friday it will get but I'll believe it when I see it. I saw 2 trucks near Hartshorn School yesterday.

Here are a few street estimates the Mayor received from a JCP&L manager today (added to the story also): On Chatham Road, 22 homes should get power today, as should 50 homes on Woodland, 11 on Martindale, 50 around Highland and Parsonage, and the entire stretch of Hobart. Residents on Dogwood and Pine should get power late today or Friday and Beechcroft will be Friday, he told her. (Although the Mayor says she gets so much misinformation from the power company that she cannot guarantee the info. But it is good to know what the township is being told vs. what you see happening on your street.

Still no power on Sherwood Road -- any update for our area?

Here is the estimated numbers from First Energy as to when Millburn/Short Hills will have power restored. Doesn't say where these people are though.

no power on Tulip :(

Is there any way we can organize a class action lawsuit against the company? Judging from the sorry state of the lines before the storm (i.e., no tree trimming whatsoever), I wonder if there is some form of negligence involved. We should organize something. I would love to not pay my bill, except the only thing that will accomplish is calls from a collection agency and a hit on my credit score.

Short hills club village on forest drive is still out. Jcp&l is a joke. This apartment complex is so old and unkept- it loses power at least once a month. I would NOT recommend renting in these ghetto apartments!!!! The owners could care less- until they are served with a fat lawsuit for rodents, unkept living conditions and zero accountability.

It's 8pm on Thursday - still no power on Nottingham Rd. The lack of communication is ridiculous. We need to know what is going on so we can properly care for our families. There must be some recourse we can take.

No power at Woodfield and Oakey and no hope in sight. JCPL team watching a smoldering line on the ground today said they need to order a new pole but the old one isnt one of their poles, etc. You have to be kidding! Put in a new pole (six days ago would have been nice!!) and move your lines over. You can figure out who owns the old pole later! Pathetic response...

Got power back in Short Hills Village apts on Woodland/Chatham some time this afternoon.

Still no power on Sherwood Road and Stewart Drive. Difficult to believe JCP&L's number that there are only 322 homes without power at this point.

Sara, I agree! Can't wait to get out of this dump. My house in SH is almost done.
