The lights came on Thursday night in about 500 homes and businesses throughout Westchester, including a Rye neighborhood where some are growing weary of Con Ed.

Crews arrived at Kirby Lane six days after the storm blew through, snapping a utility pole in half. Some residents say it's inexcusable that Con Ed took so long to respond to the potentially dangerous situation.
