Scattered Power Outages In NJ
Power outages are minimal during the latest snowstorm that’s blanketing New Jersey.
About 3,400 customers are without electricity Friday mostly because of branches taking down wires.
Jersey Central Power & Light says about 1,000 homes and businesses don’t have service. They’re mainly in Newton, Pequannock, Ringwood and Montville.
Atlantic City Electric, which was hammered by a major storm earlier this month, has about 1,800 customers without service.
The state’s largest utility, Public Service Electric & Gas, says there are about 575 scattered outages.
Nearly 5,000 utility customers in New Jersey lost power Thursday.
