Nov. 1: Warminster Neighborhoods Still Without Power

Thousands of PECO customers in Warminster still wait for the lights to come back on.

Three days after Hurricane Sandy's devestation, generators continued humming around Warminster and Ivyland.

Thousands in the Warminster and Ivyland neighborhoods have been without power since the storm wreaked havoc on the area. The Centennial School District has closed the schools since Oct. 29 and many area businesses remain dark while PECO crews work on restoring power.

Kmart, PetSmart and the majority of stores in Center Point Place have not opened for business, as well as the township library.
