He states subway service will be supplemented with buses in between Manhattan and Brooklyn. He states even more information will be released later on. The floodwaters that poured into New York's deepest subway tunnels since of Hurricane Sandy and the hybrid storm it generated pose the biggest challenge to the city 's recovery. Many tunnels that carry trains were swamped by the storm, which represents the worst natural disaster in the transit system's 108-year history.

NStar utility spokesman Mike Durand says about 17,000 customers are affected by Thursday's power outage in an eastern part of Cambridge, just across the Charles River from Boston. He says the outage is related to a transmission line and is being investigated. NStar's outage website says about 27 percent of its Cambridge customers are affected. The area includes Kendall Square near the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard Square. Transit authority spokesman Joe Pesaturo says the area's Red subway line is experiencing delays because of the outage. He says no Red Line trains are stuck in tunnels. Traffic problems also are reported in the area.
