Factbox: U.S. power outages from Sandy - Department of Energy

Oct 31 (Reuters) - Power companies had restored electricity

to some 2 million customers across the East Coast by early

on Wednesday, although the pace of recovery in New York appeared

to lag behind other hard-hit states, federal data showed.

Over 6.2 million homes and businesses remained without power

by Wednesday morning, down from 8.4 million customers at peak,

according to a Department of Energy collection of data.

That was slightly more than lost service following last

year's Hurricane Irene. [ID:nL1E8LV6Q0]
