The Village of Lawrence is enduring sporadic power outages as a result of isolated problems including blown transformers, according to Mayor Martin Oliner.

There will also be periodic shut-offs where LIPA will be restoring additional generation equipment. This is likely to continue for the next week. You should plan your purchase of refrigerated and frozen foods accordingly.
