Hours after power was restored in Queens, the lights went out for about 16,000 Consolidated Edison customers on Staten Island. The Staten Island power outage, caused by damage to three overhead lines, lasted for several hours, according to The New York Times. With another heat wave expected to hit the area in the next week, Con Ed urged Queens residents to conserve power because the system there is still weak.
