OPERATION “Cold Shoulder”

The National Weather Service is tracking the convergence of an extreme cold front from Canada and a storm from the west.  These two are expected to reach Connecticut on Friday and will bring rains and lower temperatures.  Ice is expected to form on trees and structures like power lines and bridges.   The NWS warns of slick roads, local flooding and possible power outages.   All ARES members are advised to prepare for possible deployment as shelters may be opened to accommodate towns and the American Red Cross.   Skywarn nets should be prepared to report local conditions.  Further information to come as the situation develops.
