In order to get a better handle on the clean up necessary to restore New York City after Hurricane Irene, the city has launched a website for user reporting. The site lets users report incidents like downed trees and power outages and uses Google Maps to publicly display the affected areas. Visit NYCSevereWeather.crowdmap.com to report a problem or check where outages have been reported in your area.
