Downed lines should be immediately reported to National Grid at 1-800-867-5222 or by calling 911. &nbsp;You also can report and check outages on National Grids website at : www.nationjalgrid.us.com by selecting Outage Central.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">National Grid has crews standing by and has called in an additional 500 crews expected to arrive by tomorrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Electricity &amp; Generator Safety Generators used to supply power during an outage must be operated outdoors to prevent the buildup of deadly carbon monoxide. Never run &nbsp;a generator in a garage or cellar. Always shut down the generator when refueing. Before operating a generator, be sure to disconnect from National Grid\u2019s system by shutting off the main breaker, located in the electric service panel. Failure to do this could endanger electric crews and your neighbors. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Life Support Customers who depend on electrically powered life support equipment, such as a respirator, should register as a life support customer by calling National Grid at 1-800-642-4272. (In a medical emergency, always dial 911.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keep a number of working flashlights and an extra supply of batteries in your home and be sure to charge all electronic devices before the storm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Please use caution when driving near emergency responders and crews restoring power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Be sure to check on elderly family members, neighbors and others who may need assistance during an outage.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Submitted by:Town Supervisor There is a HIGH WIND warning for our area from tonight through tomorrow midday. &nbsp;Gust of up to 65 mph are expected from 10 p.m. tonight thru mid-day tomorrow.
