Advisory

New Castle rain & wind storm update.

Due to last night's rain & wind storm, the below roads are either partially or fully closed.

As a reminder, avoid travel this morning to allow DPW and utility crews to clear roadways and conduct repairs.

Please review the important safety tips:

AVOID ALL FALLEN WIRES:

  • You can't tell if a power line is energized just by looking at it. Assume all fallen power lines are live and proceed with extreme caution.
  • Do not drive over fallen wires. Always follow the utility personnel instructions regarding fallen power lines.
  • If you see a fallen power line, stay at least 30 feet away from it and anything it contacts. The ground around a power line and any objects it contacts may be energized.
  • Please do not attempt to move a fallen power line or anything else in contact with it using an object such as a broom or stick. Even non-conductive materials like wood or cloth can conduct electricity if even slightly wet.
 In the event of life or property threatening emergencies, dial 911.  To report downed wires, road blockages, and non-life-threatening issues, contact (914) 238-4422. 

Please do not call the Police if you lose power.  Calling the Police to report a power loss only serves to tie up emergency telephone lines.  You will be referred to contact Con Edison directly at 1-800-75-CONED (1-800-752-6633).  Calling Con Edison directly enters your power loss into their computerized database.  You can also report outages, view outages map, and check outage status at www.conEd.com.
