UES Power Outage

***UPDATE***

The power has been restored. For now. They haven’t said much about the subways, but at least they’re getting somewhere with this.

Well, if you haven’t heard yet, there’s a power outage here on the UES. Fun! 375,000 of us from 5th Avenue to FDR are out.

Nothing like having the subways screwed up during Rush Hour. The 4,5, and 6 trains on Lexington Avenue and the 7, E and V trains aren’t running from 59th Street to 149th Street - oh and it’s starting to rain too.

The Office of Emergency Management is saying that transformer explosions are causing some of the outages.

I’ll be at a bar downtown waiting for my power to come back.
