Town of Rochester residents
2pm Saturday update.

Central Hudson is actively working to restore power to the 7 county area of coverage. There remain approximately 45,000 customers without power out of 110,000 customers initially without power.
Central Hudson has stated Wednesday March 7 as the expectation of total restoration. Dutchess County remains the worst effected area. Regionally, in the Northeastern area there are over 2.5 million customers without power.

The Town of Rochester has 240 customers without power. Most outages are small isolation of areas and will take longer to be repaired as the crews work toward restoring the greatest numbers of customers.
I again reiterate to anyone experiencing health and safety concerns to either call 911 for those issues of great peril of to call my cell at 845 663 4006 and I will try to assist your immediate needs.

There is nothing new to report on the AT&T cellular service. It is a carrier issue specific to AT&T.

Thank you all and thank you to our emergency workers, highway crews, and first responders for all you do every day and particularly in time of emergency
