Power Back — Slowly — in Bristol and Warren

By about 9:30 am Sunday, about 3,000 outages had been resolved with more than 13,000 left, according to National Grid.

 

National Grid crews made some progress toward restoring electrical power to customers in Bristol and Warren on Sunday morning, reporting that about 3,000 out of 16,000 households had been brought back online.

Almost all of Warren, including Touisset, and most of Bristol still remained without power, and National Grid estimated that it may be Monday night before electricity is completely restored to both towns.
