89 percent of Windsor has been restored, but towns like Bloomfield and Simsbury remain in the dark.

As of 8 a.m. on Sun., Nov. 6, Connecticut Light & Power's restoration map reports that 89 percent of households and businesses in town have gotten their power back.

Workers have made significant progress over the past few days, with it having been reported Friday afternoon that nearly 50 percent or residents remained off line.

While Windsor looks to be on track for 99 percent restoration by CL&P's estimate, which has become somewhat of a deadline in the minds of frustrated customers, there are towns across the state in which a great deal of work still needs to be done.
