radiator Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Lost power almost two hours ago - drove to the office in Washington CT - power here is iffy, network is on UPS until that runs down, but lighting is on commercial power (and flickering every few minutes). Tried to report my outage to Eversource via web and then by phone, but it seems that their systems are not up to the task. Can not complete the automated account lookup to make the report, and can not get through to a humanoid when I do have phone service. But some people are reporting outages, according to the outage map at: https://outagemap.eversource.com/external/default.html currently showing 144,700 customers affected (11 percent of their customers). 3:40 PM Eversource outage number over 166,000 in CT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 4 Seasons Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 I also feel like this is some of the strongest winds i ever seen but the numbers dont support that gusts are in the mid 40s to mid 50s around the state, BDR 62. We see something like that every year but this just looks a lot worse for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwiz Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 well tornado threat is just about done in CT outside of NE/E CT. Winds remained maxed for another hour or two then subside and gust 30-40 for another couple hours then quickly diminish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
