Power coming back after 6/29 Derecho

I can't speak for other areas that were affected by the June 29-30 Derecho that impacted a large swath of the mid-atlantic including South Jersey, but New Jersey utilities, helped by out of state crews, are making progress. If I recall, there were more than 200,000 outages last Saturday. I saw this report on MyFox29 out of Philadelphia that the number of outages is down to 16,000 as of early in the morning on July 5.

My friends at Downstown lost power at the airport (28N) which was restored later in the day on July 2. They only lost one day of flying. You see, their fuel trucks were full of fuel, so even without electricity they were able to keep flying, conducting various aerial application runs. It seems that they only lost one day, last Saturday. They were caught up by the time the July 4th holiday rolled around.
