The governor said utility companies are on standby, and will try and restore power, but he's warning residents to be prepared.
"Weather conditions at any moment may prevent crews from getting up in a bucket safely and that is especially the case with high winds," Murphy said. "I am hoping we don't lose power because it's going to be pretty cold from that perspective hope we don't lose power because of the winds," Summit resident Sarah Robertson said."I have a compact car, so I always get nervous when it's ice or snow because I don't know what to expect and I have to drive through it to work. So, that's my concern," said Benedicta Asante of Union.
"I am on vacation this week, so I am not going nowhere, and Christmas Day I got to fry a turkey outside. That's going to be cold," said Reynaldo Casta of Hillside."Do not use your stove top, gas appliance for heat. That is dangerous," a fire official said. The cities of Paterson and Newark have activated their Code Blue warning systems. That means they'll work hard to get the homeless indoors and open warming centers for anyone who loses power.
