National Grid has now restored electricity to all of its customers in Orleans County.
Orleans had about 4,000 customers without power on Monday afternoon after strong winds knocked down wires, branches and trees. That represented about 20 percent of National Grid’s 19,724 customers in Orleans County.
That total customers without power was down to 2,000 on Tuesday morning and 90 this morning.
Today, after 3 p.m., the last property had power restored. That site is on Marsh Creek Road in Carlton between Sawyer and Kent roads.
