TELL US: Did NStar, National Grid Perform Well During Hurricane Sandy?
The two utility companies have had complaints in recent storms—Hurricane Irene and Snowtober—but say they stepped it up for Sandy.
Hurricane Sandy blew out of the region earlier this week, but not without causing massive power outages, some of which have yet to be fixed. Both National Grid and NStar say they did a better, faster job in fixing power outages than in previous storms, according to WBUR. Not everyone agrees, however. According to the story, Newton Mayor Setti Warren said NStar was faster, but there's still work to be done. Gov. Deval Patrick also told WBUR the companies worked faster, but said a "total victory" can't be declared. Do you agree? Have they improved since the last storm? Or is there still work to be done? Tell us in the comments.

Zippity Do Dog on Speen St is still out and I was told they would be working on it this am. Well the sun has gone down and no power. I will call Friday and hope to be up and running Monday. After reading Tastings, maybe I won't be up Monday. A drag running a small business that is dependent on electricity. more ›
