FDNY races to rescue New Yorkers trapped in dark ELEVATORS as the Big Apple and New Jersey is plunged into chaos by sudden mass power outage sparked by 'explosion' at Con Edison plant
- Black smoke was seen coming from the Con Edison power facility in Brooklyn on Thursday night
- The smoke happened around the time outages were reported across NYC
- Outages led to travel chaos and people being stuck in elevators throughout the Big Apple
The New York City Fire Department was forced to save people from elevators across the city and commuters were trapped on the subway after a fault at a Con Edison plant in Brooklyn caused power outages.
Black smoke was seen coming from the power facility in Brooklyn at 11.55pm on Thursday night and a momentary power outage followed with lights flickering for a few seconds.
It plunged the city into chaos temporarily with multiple reports of people trapped in elevators and stuck on the subway for up to 20 minutes. Some motorists also reported blinking traffic lights.
Alarming footage showed a security guard at a Wegmans store in Brooklyn being rescued from an elevator by firefighters. At Grand Central station all elevators and escalators were out of service due to the power issue.
Con Edison said the issue was due to a fault on a power line at its facility on John Street in Dumbo. Most electricity is back up and running.

On December 15 there is a distinct Methane SO2 line from Iceland to the Azores, as well as a Methane SO2 swath from the Seaway exit to the Azores and beyond along the Mediterranean plate border. On this day there is a quake smack in the middle of the Seaway, and significant quakes along the Atlantic Rift from Iceland to the Azores. Is Montreal getting ready to clap?

Eyes on the Seaway on December 11. All Burn maps show the separation of the Portions has climbed up past Montreal, past Quebec City, and it starting to erode the Portion connections in the N Atlantic. A lot of progress in just one day. How is the SE Portion hanging on? By a thread and a fingernail and a prayer.

On December 10 the separation of the Portions is running up along the Seaway. The only part of the New Madird Fault Line not spearated yet is out in the Alantic from the Seaway exit to the Azores. But the creep of the separation up along the Seaway is past Montreal, and has created a tense separation drama with the tugging of fault lines at NYC - East Coast, Ramapo, Appalachian, and New Madrid all touch in this area. A big rip is awaiting.
