Thousands Remain Without Power in Philadelphia Region

About 9,000 customers remained without power Sunday night after violent storms ripped through the area on Tuesday, leaving behind widespread damage. A second set of storms on Saturday added thousands of outages.

As of Sunday evening, the lights were still out for people across the Philadelphia region. Some of the hardest hit areas -- including Gloucester County in New Jersey -- continued to see the highest outage numbers.

Atlantic City Electric had the highest numbers of customers without power, with about 8,000 in the dark throughout South Jersey -- about 6,000 in Gloucester County alone -- late Sunday night.

PECO restored many of its customers' power throughout Southeastern Pennsylvania by Friday as expected, but more than 800 were suffering outages -- most in Philly -- Sunday night.

As of Sunday night, only about 60 PSE&G customers in South Jersey had no power. And, down in Delaware, Delmarva reported a handful of customers without power in New Castle County.
