Can anyone post the timeframe from which they plan on having the rest of freehold township restored? Since I do not have power, my only access to the internet is via phone and my phone cannot open the pdf file mentioned above. Thank you!

FWIW, their attempt to give a link to a PDF of their plans for restoration leads to a "page not found"

Read that list carefully. Long Branch isn't on it. Thus, it seems JCPL won't do anything to help us for days or even weeks- but they won't say so. "Just leave them off the list and maybe they won't notice - heck, bet most of 'em kaint hardly read good anyway. And remember, JCPL is not liable in any way to anyone ever for failing to provide service, so they can wait until Hades freezes over."

Hey only 43% in Middletown by Sunday so bravo JCP&L! Going to work to pay for gas for generators and fuel to get to work which has moved 2 hours away because they lost power as well. I'm not holding my breath I don't expect power back until next week.

I have a bet that I won't have power till thanksgiving!!!! I have a down power line, power lines everywhere in my backyard and 3 huge white pines down in the yard...wrapped with power lines!!! I haven't seen any jcpl trucks at all on my street!!! I think my house alone will keep the entire I section of Aberdeen in the dark!!!

Instead of number of customers in that list, why not streets or at least sections?

Great Idea would be nice to know when it is expected to come back on instead of just giving numbers to people.

I live in Conover Hills in Marlboro. Conover Road has been blocked by a downed utility pole and transformer since the storm hit. Last night I saw 3 cars carelessly bypass the blockade to pass. If careless adults are doing this i am concerned that children are also. Is there any timeframe to get this type of repair made or is this infrastructure and scheduled for who knows when. Power outage is one thing but danger is another, I assume the power is off but still think .this is a potential problem

So what happens if this storm hits us on Wednesday? Do the areas that are still out of power go back to the bottom of the list to wait for restoration? It says parts of holmdel has power, but the only lights I've seen are the ones that are powered by generators. We still have trees laying on power lines in our development, so I'm not sure if Wednesday is realistic for us here. Hopefully they will be able to power us up before another storm comes our way. Stay safe everyone
