Monday Morning Storm Update from First Selectman Tom Frenaye

The Emergency Shelter at Suffield High School remains open. It is possible to stop by during the day to recharge electronic devices and they are serving meals. Showers are also available. 

CL&P has at least one crew designated for work in town today, with the priority to clear wires and trees on roads that are blocked. Restoration of power will still likely take several more days. Again, be very careful with downed power lines – do not attempt to clear them yourself.

The Suffield public schools are closed. Town offices will be open but some offices may offer limited services.

Trash pickup is on the regular weekly schedule. Some businesses are open. , , and in East Windsor (100 Bridge St.) are open, but some only take cash or credit cards. Gasoline is in short supply, we are not aware of any open gas stations within 20 miles of Suffield. 

Halloween activities in Suffield have been cancelled for today and rescheduled for the night of Saturday, Nov. 5.

For emergencies, call 911. For non-emergency requests, you can call the Emergency Operations Center at 860-668-3886.
