As of midafternoon Sunday, Henri had done his worst, and thankfully, that wasn't much.
According to Town Admisitrator Steven Contente, DPW workers were cleaning some fallen limbs around town, but no trees had fallen on town streets. Two sewage department pump stations were operating on generator backup due to outages at their locations, and they were running fine.
The largest power outage, which covered downtown from Walley to Franklin streets and Wood to Thames streets, was restored at about 3:30 p.m. That outage affected about 800 National Grid customers. At this time, about 400 customers remain without power in town.
"The storm surge warning is cancelled and we are in very good shape," said Mr. Contente. "We'll resume normal operations, including trash and recycling pickup, tomorrow."
