Post Historic Major Nor’easter Coordination Message #1
Hello to all..
..This message is a brief post historic major nor’easter coordination message. At the time of this message writing, about 660,000 customers were without power in Massachusetts and around 700,000 in Connecticut and over 200,000 in New Hampshire bringing the impact in Southern New England to over 1.5 million people without power..
..Widespread tree and wire damage with heavy elevation snows ranged from 12-24″ with isolated 30″+ amounts occurred. Winds at the coast gusted to almost 70 MPH across Cape Cod and the Islands..
..ARES/RACES/MARS and EMCOMM groups continue to monitor the situation closely in case support is needed..
..Realizing that many folks who may provide pictures and data maybe without power. It is reminded that even pictures and damage info given days after the incident can be very useful in understanding the extent of damage and providing a historical record for such an anomalous event. Any pictures that would be shared with the media, emergency management and NWS officials can be sent to pics@nsradio.org and credit will be given to the spotter who provided the pictures unless otherwise indicated..
..Another post storm coordination message will follow later this week. Below is the NWS Taunton Local Storm Report and Public Information Statement given on storm impact..
