Lived in CT back in 1977 ... the year NYC had the last major power outage. Had business appointments in NJ the following day ... remember driving down to the GW bridge and listening to the reports on looting, etc.. It was this time of year ... July as I recall. That outage was much larger than this one ... the previous major power outage in NYC was back in November 1965.

There was another one in 2003, too.

I got caught in that one and the one in '65.
