| From MSNBC:
|
| Other affected cities included Buffalo, Albany and Syracuse, N.Y.;
| Hartford, Conn.; Lansing and many other smaller cities in Michigan;
Akron
| and Toledo, Ohio; and Ottawa and Montreal in Ontario.
|
| Washington and the federal government were not affected Neither were
much
| of New England - including all of Massachusetts, Rhode Island and New
| Hampshire, southern Vermont and eastern Connecticut - and other areas
of
| Canada, including Quebec City.
Correction to the above snippet. Montreal & Quebec City (Province of
Quebec; not Ontario as stated above) are on a separate power grid and
thus not affected by this outage.
