Some lights and power are coming back on in NY as we speak. You can see lights in buildings now.

Probably a hospital with its own generators or a building with emergency lights still working.

These were skyscrapers and it looked like rooms were well lit on a few floors. So yeah, it could be generators. But CNN did say "some power coming back on".

Rolling blackouts. They'll shift what they have on the grid to give everybody "equal time".
