The Stamford Advocate has released pictures of the storm that devastated the state of Connecticut on Saturday night and the pictures show the amount of destruction that the storm caused. A total of two people were pronounced dead and both of them were women. One was just a year under forty and was a resident of New Jersey while the other was an older female who was on her way to a dinner. Both women came to their death by the hands of the storm which made trees fall in the most haphazard way.
In the Stamford Advocate article about the storm it has been revealed that the town of Tesei declared a state of emergency as more than sixty percent of the town went into darkness. A little under eighteen thousand customers of Connecticut Light and Power were left without electricity which is astonishing considering that the total population of the town is only twenty-seven thousand people. The state of emergency was declared twenty minutes before two in the morning on Sunday and it is up to the authorities to decide when the state can be normalized.
The repairs for the damages that the storm has left will take at least a few days and many crews have been deployed to the areas most severely hit by the storm. The Stamford Advocate told us that there may be crews coming in from Quebec as well, the Canadian city which lies somewhat close to the state. For the repairs a total of two-hundred-and-thirteen crews have been sent out of which the majority if of line repair crews which amount to a hundred-and-sixty crews and fifty-three tree teams which will clear the fallen trees from the path.
