National Grid said they were still working to restore power to 70,000 of its Massachusetts customers as of 10 a.m. Tuesday. They said the highest concentrations of outages are in the counties of Bristol, Essex, Middlesex, Norfolk, Plymouth and Worcester.

The utility said they have secured additional crews from New York and Canada to help with the restoration effort.

“Our crews have been working tirelessly to restore service as quickly and as safely as we can, and we’ve made a lot of progress – but there is a long way to go,” said Tim Moore, vice president for Electric Operations for New England. “This storm caused a lot of damage largely across Eastern Massachusetts, and we have crews focused on the hardest hit locations. We recognize that this is a challenging time of year to lose power as everyone is preparing for the holidays, but we’ll continue to work until every last customer is restored.”
