Latest PSEG Estimate Has Outages Extending Into Weekend

PSEG's estimates for when power will be fully restored in Fair Lawn and Saddle Brook extend further with each passing day.

In the utility's latest estimates, released Monday morning, crews will continue working on both communities into the weekend.

By Sunday, Nov. 11, all but 18 customers in Fair Lawn and 155 in Saddle Brook should be restored.

Per PSEG's posted work schedule, crews should work extensively over the next three days in Fair Lawn -- where 38.3 percent of customers are still without power -- restoring all but about 70 unfortunate customers by midnight Wednesday. 

The vast majority of Saddle Brook customers—85.8 percent—have power, but PSEG will continue restoring power to those still in the dark throughout the week, at a pace of about 110 per day.

Both communities appear fortunate when compared to the neighboring towns of Ridgewood and Glen Rock, which still had 59.5 percent and an astounding 91.3 percent without power, respectively, as of Monday morning.

PSEG has provided no information as to what parts of Fair Lawn and Saddle Brook it will be restoring on any given day, nor is it known what small pockets of each town will remain in the dark through Saturday.

Number of customers that will be restored daily, based on PSEG's Nov. 5 estimates:
