Over 1,800 Still Without Power In Ridgefield
If your power has not returned by 10 a.m. Wednesday, call the Office of Emergency Management at 203-431-2350.
From First Selectman Rudy Marconi:
Good Evening, this is First Selectman Rudy Marconi.
Currently there are approximately 1900 outages remaining with Eversource promising to continue to work until all power is restored with 99% happening by 11:59 tonight. Much progress has been made including Route 7 restoration, which is now underway.
If your power has not returned by 10 am tomorrow, please call the Office of Emergency Management at 203-431-2350 to report your location and leave your contact information. Please also call Eversource to report the outage at 800 286-2000.
Do not interrupt Eversource crews as they work towards restoration. For safety reasons, they cannot continue to work while residents are talking to them. This wastes precious time that could be spent on restoration.
Finally, to date we have had 44 Carbon Monoxide calls related to this storm. I’m asking that those with portable generators, make sure they are away from windows, doors, garages and any other ventilation that enters the house.
