A total of 1,333 Con Edison customers in the borough were still in the dark at around 11:20 a.m., an online outage map shows.
It wasn’t immediately clear how many of those outages were directly related to the storm — which swept through the city on August 4.
Brooklyn is the second-most affected borough, with 297 outages. The Bronx has 163, and Manhattan and Staten Island each have only one.
On Tuesday, a Queens Village family of five — including a 6-year-old cancer survivor — ripped Con Edison for leaving them in a “dangerous” situation by failing to restore their power for an entire week.
Mom Shameeza Singh, 31, said Con Ed changed its story about power restoration three times, with the utility company giving an undelivered promise that it would be back by Monday morning.
Con Ed did not immediately respond to a request for comment about the continued outages.
