Says YouTube user rapheevanoff: "The day after the storm hammered NYC, lower Manhattan remained without electricity. Most of the usually lit-up downtown office buildings were conspicuously dark at sundown although some were running on generator power. Also I just realized that the lack of flights normally over the city, save for the few helicopters, was striking."
