Thank you for the update!!!!

I don't get it. Was there a fallen wire in the vicinity of where the road was burned?

I live in mahwah near Ramsey and wyckoff and I haven't seen one truck. All my husbands family lives in mahwah so I can't take my small children and dogs there because they too have no power or heat. My famy lives in the storm battered town if little ferry so I can't go there either. I'm disappointed. My neighbors have tried to get hotel rooms and have been having trouble finding vacancy. They have even looked in PA. I know the staging area for rockland electric is at Sheraton crossroads but its unfair that all these places that are getting power back are all very close to that hotel. The command center should be sending trucks to varied locations. Before anyone wants to beat me down for my comments, my side if town does not appear to have sustained much wind and tree damage from the storm so it shouldn't be difficult. I'm curious, has the mayor has gotten his power back? I'm saddened by the devastation my family is little ferry has had to endure. I count my blessings but in an area of town where my house is in tact, I would have loved to given them shelter and can't.

Why too does it take a crew from out of state to diagnose the true cause of the damage to ridge road? Shouldn't rockland electric have known the issues in their supplying area? Ridiculous.

I knew they were all crazy...I saw the whole thing...wire fell, power went out Monday night...Tuesday morning there was a "snake line" burnt into the top of the pile of asphalt...As usual, clueless....I talked to the O and r crews..I talked to the mayor..If any of them had done the least bit of detective work and asked eye witness's and and people who saw the whole thing..like the police and FD, not to mention the condo residents watching, we would have had power 2 days ago.

And how could Lowther now know this in the very least?...See, here's what you do...You look at the wires from point A to Point B and figure out where everything goes..no different than any other wiring schematic. And on more thought, Are you telling me O and R doesn't have a master plan to their own wiring and can't figure out where the school wires are? Here's a clue for ya....Trace it backwards from the schools...

I agree shouldn't they know their own line network?

Mahwah Mom... We live in Cregmere not far from The Crossroads and we do not have power nor have I seen one truck. I assumed that they were all over on your side of town....

O&R, I will not be happy and go away after my power goes on. No excuse for your actions or your lack of competence. You will answer to your customers and be held accountable.
Why were 40-60 trucks "PARKED" at the staging area the last three days? Both you and they didn't have a plan.

Correction. Please clarify gas rules

Anyone know what is happening with power in the fardale section of town. We haven't seen any trucks at all

In a town that was ravaged by storm surge the power is on. I got word this morning that my cousins house in little ferry that had 6 feet of water had power restored so at least they can begin cleaning. My point is we or I should say most in mahwah have been very fortunate to not have suffered the damage and devastation like those down the shore, in moonachie, or little ferry. There is no excuse that power is not being restored more quickly to the citizens of mahwah. If its a matter of cutting trees then ask for help, my husband pulled his chainsaw out to remove trees from roadways so that all vehicles could get through. He would have done more if he wasn't required to mandatory overtime by FEMA! Call in more tree experts. Governor Christie said throw away the old play books and do whatever it takes. If our rates are going to go up (as they typically do after storm events such as this) than make it worth the while of the townspeople and prove the increase is worth it.

I live in Cragmere and O&R's site says that my power will be restored by 11:30 PM on 11/11. We've seen O&R supervisor vehicles in our area but that's it. When my husband asked the man about the status of the restoration he told him he wasn't allowed to give us any information. Great way to run a business O&R!

I live in Ramapo Ridge and we are going on day 6 without power. We have not seen 1 O&R truck in the area. My husband saw only 2 non-O&R trucks on Ridge Road on Friday from South Carolina. They were assessing, had no direction or plan from O&R. The line is still down by the high school. It has not been repaired and they had no idea when it would be repaired. We have been checking daily. I don't know which part of Ridge Road this picture is or where this information for the story came from, but O&R is MIA

So my sister had power restored in Hoboken, which was under water. Substations under water. They have PSE&G - that's the reason !!!!!!! Not Orange and Rockland!!!!!

Is there anywhere in Mahwah that needs volunteers? I am new to the area but would like to be of help to my neighbors.

So this sounds like there is one crew working in Mahwah. This is ridiculous. If they are working 24 hours a day, where are they in town right now. I would love to know because I haven't seen anyone.

bet did you get power now? I didn't see an update. The problem is many do have power back but don't up date their complaints. At least we are not flooded like some places. Well I hope things get better for all.

That's our current Mayor. Self promoting but not out there, not in the "trenches" pushing for the answers and being responsive with the community. When the announcement of open gas stations went out he listed his Sunoco and his largest campaign contributor Valero. He left out the Gulf across the street from him and Pilot.
He should be on top of the OR situation. Time for a change in government .

Does anyone know if service is restored at Ridge Gardens?

The worst part is their sending estimated bills which is way higher than expected. I have to 300 dollar bill which is very very unusual

Living in Cragmere where the Mayor lives, we are probably screwed in getting power back sooner. He needs to look like a martyr for his self serving political needs to show he too doesn't have power. I guess if he's re-elected on Tuesday, maybe then we'll get our power back! It's pretty sad.

Ridge gardens is back up

Thanks for this site. The only place I can find updates on Mahwah. Wish the town's website could provide info. I had to leave my powerless home so the robocalls are of no help to me.

Joe L the same info is on the Township of Mahwah site if thats helps any. Hang in.
Good luck hope your back soon.

Does this mean the school's power is on?

Thanks for all the updates ...they really help....question... .there is utility pole on Seminary and Campgaw hanging with wires...has anyone looked at it? any comments?

Thanks for all updates.....

Its time that the Mayor gets some results. We too are w/o power and havent seen a truck from OR or any other state. He emails us everyday to tell us "Mahwah still struggles with power and gas lines." Well DUH! and "I continue to have my daily conference call with O&R" Baloney. He's actually DONE nothing! The sad reality is that come election day, one of the candidates will be our mayor. Neither has the ability to get things accomplished. We don't need daily emails telling us what we all already know. We need action that produces results. Its almost a week now, things have NOT gotten better.

WE HAVE POWER! !! I AM A CURRENT RESIDENT OF RIDGE GARDENS...BY THE FIRE....WHILE MY HEART GOES OUT TO U ALL STILL W/O POWER...MAY IT BE SOME FAR REACHING HOPE....THAT YOU TOO WILL HAVE WARMTH AND ELECTRIC SOON!!! For those without power...PLEASE HANG IN THERE...and for those who have power...or NEVER LOST IT...please..STEP UP AND HELP YOUR NEIGHBORS! !! I am APPALLED AT HOW PEOPLE CAN LET OTHERS SUFFER!!!! I am a handicapped woman..who would have given the sweatshirt off my back to those in need....and when generators were acquired...NOT EVEN AN OFFER.TO SEE UPDATES ON TV!? its TRULY TIME FOR PATIENCE AND MOST IMPORTANTLY COMPASSION!!! the saying goes...treat other how you would like to be treated yourself!! MANY HOPES AND PRAYERS FOR THOSE OF YOU WITHOUT POWER....U ARE IN MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS!!! BE SAFE!!!

Can we get an update on whether they got power to the schools?

I herd the Schools were on a different circuit....last herd that if power not restored by Sunday they are having a meeting at 530 p.m. and then using the 1 call phone system to notify parents... I hope thats helpful.... if I hear anything else I will post it.... GOOD LUCK!!

We live in Fardale off Deerfield and had power 2 days now but lost it again now for an hour now back again so it shows they are working in this area too. Granted it not a big area I'm not sure but it is better than it was last year for us. Well good luck all and hopefully soon all will be back. I believe our main wires come from Oakland area.

Hsr - no power yet but thankfully my mother got power today on hilltop road the other side of town. So we have a warm home to stay at. Thank god.

bet I am happy to hear that you have a place to go. Hopefully you'll be back home soon. I know it's uncomfortable to be out. Went that route last year. Good luck . Stay warm.

Interesting..just drove all around fardale...Wires still hanging on youngs road....saw only one crew...and apparently, people are being told that it is all due to the burning wire on ridge road..which we all know by now is a bunch of BS as they have already stated there is no underground burning wire...

Doesn't seem the Mayor is onto to anything...except raking in more profit at his gas station...where he is over 10 cents more a gallon than the Gulf station across the street...and more than 20 cents more than the highway stations...

we're off deerfield not connected to Youngs road cables.

No power @ the schools. Some of Ramapo Ridge was restored today, but not all.

Mayor if you read this please share with your town the results of your daily 3 PM conference calls with R&O. Those of us without power are being VERY patient with you and want to know what they are telling you everyday. And Cregmere realizes that we will be last due to you living over here. Tues can't get here soon enough
