Hurricane Henri remains on course to make landfall on Eastern Long Island and Eastern Connecticut later this morning. It is expected to bring very gusty winds and heavy rain to our area later today.
We encourage residents to stay off the roads. During periods of high winds and rain it is extremely dangerous due to falling trees and flooding.

We remind you to not approach or walk over downed power lines. You should treat any downed wire as being live and energized. Also, do not drive through standing water.
