Blizzard resources

Posted

Here’s a list of resources to keep you in-the-know as the blizzard approaches.

For weather information, see NYC's severe weather website and The Weather Channel's Bronx page: To report downed power lines, outages, and check service restoration status by computer or mobile device, go to ConEd's website or call 1-800-75-CONED (1-800-752-6633). Have your account number available and, if possible, report whether neighbors have lost power. 

ConEdison says that customers who report outages will be called by ConEdison with their estimated restoration times as they become available.
