Power outages were reported in at least two sections of Manhattan in New York City early Friday, according to several media reports.

The Upper West Side of Manhattan seems to have been affected, as well Harlem.

People reported losing power about 5 a.m., according to Fox News, but others had powered restored as soon as 20 minutes later.

Con Edison is the utility company that serves the city.

The utility has been working to recover from the recent passage of Hurricane Isaias, which downed numerous trees.

The city’s subway and transit system was also affected.
