I was at BDL on Sunday at around 11am as my Enterprise Car had a busted window from the storm. There was NO POWER anywhere at BDL or even near BDL as of 9am. I don't know when the power failed only that at 9am Enterprise Road Side Assistance contacted Enterprise at BDL to arrange the swap of the car and was told they did not have power.
We even had an issue with the replacement car and only a quarter tank of gas. Driving down I91 looking at intersections from overpasses to see if the traffic lights work in order to find open gas stations.

That said, when did BDL loose power?
Did they have sufficient backup power?
How did that effect BDL operations and/or the diverted flights?
