Direct answer
- Hydro One maintains an outage map that updates roughly every 10 minutes, with an on-map summary showing total outages, customers affected, crew status, cause (when known), and estimated time of restoration. You can access per-outage details by clicking on individual outages or clusters on the map, and you can sign up for outage alerts or report an outage from the same page. The map’s last updated timestamp is shown in the outage summary. [Hydro One Outage Map Guide, 2026-04-13; 2026-04-10][1][2]

What I can do next
- If you’d like, I can monitor for updates and summarize changes in the Hydro One outage map for your exact location in New York City (note: Hydro One serves Ontario, Canada; for NYC-area outages you’d typically look at Con Edison or NYSEG). I can also pull recent Ontario outage clusters near your city of interest and translate them into a concise status update with the latest restoration estimates. To tailor this, tell me your preferred neighborhood or ZIP (Ontario) you want tracked, or confirm you’d like a general Ontario-wide update.
