BOSTON — Cape Cod and the South Shore are still coping with the wrath of the Blizzard of ’26.

The 10 o’clock tally for power outages remains above a quarter of a million customers without power. The exact number is 252,490, according to the MEMA database update.

Up and down the Cape power remains out with Barnstable the worst in the state with 25,300-plus outages. Falmouth is next with 23,500 without power.

Just over the bridge, Plymouth remains in the dark with 23,400 customers (homes) powerless and counting.

Dennis, Yarmouth, Mashpee, Harwich, Brewster, Chatham, and Eastham are all listed with 5,000 to 9,000 without power. Basically, Cape Cod is ice cold. Provincetown, Nantucket, Sandwich, and Wellfleet are in that cold cluster.

Marshfield, always susceptible to any nor’easter, spring, summer, winter, or fall, pokes in high on the outage list with more than 9,000 homes (sandwich shops?) without power.

The angry ocean off Scituate (as pictured above) is claiming payback with more than 5,400 homes left in the dark.

New Bedford, Oak Bluffs on the Vineyard, and Gloucester, to a much lesser degree, are still on the outage list.

The region is still digging out from this monster storm, with officials and the neighborly among us all watching out for each other.
