As of Saturday, Nov. 3, we will only update this page sporadically, if at all. As electric service is being steadily restored to the area, more and more businesses are open and more are becoming fully stocked, greatly easing the situation that existed right after the storm.
Updated on Wednesday, Oct. 31 at 10:50 p.m. Partial updates again on Thursday, Nov. 1 at 5:55 p.m., on Friday, Nov. 2 at 12:21 a.m. and 1:10 a.m. and on Saturday, Nov. 3 at 2:17 p.m.
