Fromn Fox News:
The historic blizzard battering the Northeast has officially pushed power outages past the half-million mark. Data from PowerOutage.com indicates that over 500,000 customers are now without electricity as hurricane-force wind gusts and heavy, wet snow continue to dismantle the regional power grid. One customer represents a single address, so the number of Americans without power could be well over 1,000,000 at this time.
The situation remains critical in Massachusetts and New Jersey, which are currently bearing the brunt of the blackouts with combined totals exceeding 270,000 outages.
