First a Power report

I hope most of our members are back on line, with power at home, and aren't reading this at work or on smart phones. I can say the CL&P outage map looks a lot better than it did two days ago and a 1000 times better than it did for two weeks after last years snow storm outage.

Most inland center of the State areas are listed as in the 1% or less without power zone. 
                                           Suffield - .07%    Enfield - .02%,   Somers - .25% , Stafford, Tolland, Ellington, East Windsor, Windsor Locks, East Granby, Granby, Simsbury, Canton, Torrington, Avon, Burlington, etc

The east and west areas of the State inland are in the 1% to 10% out of power zone.
                                         Kent 5%,  Bethlehem 8%,  Canterbury 2%, Griswold 10%,  Colchester 1%, mansfield 7%, Windham 2%, and so on.

The shoreline is a little different, Voluntown 23% without power, North Stonington 72%, Preston 53%,  Stonington 50%, Groton 31%, Ledyard 67%, Montville 39%, Waterford 29%,  East Lyme 51%, Old Lyme 67%, Lyme 48%, Old Saybrook 20%, Essex 17%, deep River 34%, Westbrook 31%, Clinton 43%,  Killingworth 54%, Madison 42%, Guilford 64%, Branford 22%, 

If you are without power but have access you can check the outage rate by clicking on the CL&P outage map site.  http://outage.cl-p.com/outage/outagemap.aspx

They are talking tuesday for most everyone back on power. Off course with the temperatures dropping for the weekend this isn't the greatest news if you are still without power. 

Tuesday night and Wednesday next week there is a Nor'easter expected, temperatures during the day in the mid 40's with rain.
