Some other Orange County residents, served by Central Hudson, are also without power. As of 11:30 a.m. 1,034 customers are still without power.
O&R company spokesman Mike Donovan said there may be some customers without power over the weekend that have other issues associated with their outage.
In addition to power outages, the Ramapo Police Department is asking residents to be patient if they want to file police reports for non-emergencies, such as mailbox damages, etc.
The department said that currently they are only responding to emergency calls, monitoring road closures, and downed trees, and working with local utility companies to help facilitate the return of power, cable and other utilities.
For emergencies, call 911.
