Syosset Sends SOS to LIPA

As the amount of power outages in Syosset and Woodbury dwindled to almost a quarter of what they were a week before, residents continued trying to flag down Long Island Power Authority trucks by any means necessary.

This sign, photographed by Grace Kim on Twitter, was found on Jackson Avenue.

"Syosset never would make a sign like this but we need power! #lipa hurry up! We're freezing!" she tweeted along with the photo.

"Saw a sign in Syosset today that said #LIPA Help. Well @LIPAnews? Will you help? While you're at it, help us in Hicksville out too," tweeted Kelsey Ann about the same sign Monday.

As of Tuesday afternoon, just under 3,000 homes were still without power in Syosset and Woodbury, according to LIPA. 1,780 homes in Syosset remained in the dark, while 1,100 were still without power in Woodbury.
