The Central Hudson map pinpoints the location of power outages in the utility's service area, provides the number of affected customers and offers estimated restoration times.
The map is available around the clock and updated every 15 minutes.
Users may see an overview of all outages, as well as outages and restoration information by county, municipality and individual address.
A short, instructional video on the outage map is available on the Web site, highlighting its many features.
The Poughkeepsie-based utility said customers should still report their power condition after damaging storms to help Central Hudson determine the extent and location of needed repairs, and to provide the information used to update the map and the data systems.
