Most of the area had already been restored by the time a Nor'easter hit Wednesday, but crews repairing wires for smaller pockets still without power had to shut off power briefly to some places where it had already been restored. Residents reported crews continuing to work late Wednesday as several inches of snow fell.

Limited service on NJ Transit's Pascack Valley Line was also scheduled to resume Monday for the first time since Hurricane Sandy hit.
