Thousands still without power throughout north country

(WWNY) – The weekend’s high, damaging winds have largely subsided, but thousands remain without power in the tri-county area as of noon Monday.

National Grid’s website showed restoration estimates ranging from late afternoon to about midnight.

Nearly 2,000 customers were without power in St. Lawrence County Monday morning. There’s no single concentration, but outages between 100 and 200 were reported in Canton, Colton, DeKalb, Gouverneur, Hopkinton, Parishville, Pierrepont, Pitcairn, and Russell.

The greatest concentrations of the 700 outages in Jefferson County are in Champion and Clayton.

In Lewis County, the 1,100 or so outages are mostly concentrated in Croghan, New Bremen, and Watson.

National Grid is offering dry ice for customers concerned about food going bad. Dry ice and bottled water are available from noon to 4 p.m. at the CitiBus garage in Watertown, the Jefferson Community College extension campus in Lowville, and at the Canton Fire Department.
