Eversource saying that 50-70% of its customers will be without power for 1-3 weeks?! Maybe I need another cup of coffee… “According to Eversource, 50% to 69% of their customers could lose power. Restorations could go on from 8 to 21 days.” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snugharbor Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Must be interacting with the colder water because the eye is starting to lose its definition. Also seems to be tilting NW from the last few frames also. It might clip LI after all if that is actually a real trend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Starting to turn NNW now I think. The rain and wind will be pretty awesome where they both coincide in RI and from Steve to Kevin. Steve probably stronger winds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure that all of RI is serviced by NGRID. At least that is the case here in South Kingstown and we have about half the population along the coast from Westerly to Narragansett.
