Connecticut is closing all interstate highways, including the Merritt Parkway, at 1 pm today. Power outages already reported.
Here in RI the heavy rains and winds are just starting. The storm will get more serious around 2 pm with the worst being around 8-10 pm tonight. I'm far enough away from the ocean that I am not worried about storm surges, but we are very worried about flooding here.
There are 12 to 15 ft waves hitting the beaches here. Coastal areas and low-level areas evacuated. I definitely expect to lose power tonight.
