Change in track.

 We may be catching a break with this storm. The hurricane center has moved the storm track a little to the west so the storm will be making a direct hit to Long Island and Connecticut.  But we will still be feeling some effects.




Be sure to spend time today to prepare. 
  • Bring in anything that could cause damage if blown away. 
  • Be sure to charge all your electronic devices.
  • fill your gas tank in case the gas stations lose power
  • have batteries for flashlights and candles ready to be used.
  • gas for the generator if you have one.

Henri is coming for a visit

 


Right now #Henri is a tropical storm but by the time it reaches southern New England it may be a category 1 Hurricane. To quote meteorologist Zack Green, "This is a batten down the hatches scenario"  

The current track of this storm has it making landfall in southern Massachusetts, but remember the track can easily change so be sure to watch weather updates.  Now is the time to prepare. 


Power outages are likely so make sure you have all electronic devices charged and maybe some flashlights on hand. Make sure your freezer has plenty of ice made to help keep the food frozen while the power is out. Be prepared for lots of rain, including some flooding.






Most importantly - Everyone stay SAFE!
