Sandy Causes Widespread Outages In Parkville-Overlea

BGE is reporting between 1,372 to 5,275 outages in the Parkville-Overlea area.

It looks like like a hefty percentage of the outages BGE is currently reporting in Baltimore County could be in the Parkville-Overlea area.

According to the outage map on the utility company's website, anywhere between 1,372 and 5,275 homes in the Parkville-Overlea area were without power as of 2:40 p.m.. The company's site also said there were a total of 10,793 customers without power in Baltimore County.

On Facebook, readers are reporting in to let us know which areas still have power and which have lost it.

A reader identified as Betty Frank-Oster said the power flickered on and off near Oakleigh Road and several reports have come in that the Overlea-Fullerton area still has electricity.

Recently, BGE said they could not provide individual estimated restoration times due to the severity of expected power outages. At a press conference, Gov. Martin O'Malley said recently that outages had risen drastically: more than 24,000 are without as of 2:30 p.m.

Apparently my last comment was flagged. I'll clean it up: Surprise, Surprise, the offer is onlyRead More good for NEW customers. Yet I've been a "loyal" Comcast customer for over 15 years now, never late on a payment nor complained when my service failed or I've had an issue that wasn't resolved without me taking "above and beyond" steps. Comcast is a juggernaut that just doesn't care if once it gets your business. You get locked in and then are stuck until your "contract" expires. Mine expires 2/22/2014 or I could cancel and pay $200. I'm going to hold out and then cut cable all together and just have Internet service so my Rokus work. But Verizon FIOS is looking better by the day.
