The hottest-selling items around central Connecticut are roof rakes, and there’s no reason quite yet to expect any slowdown, as the white stuff continues to descend and the temperatures, after whatever warming occurs during the present storm, drops back into the teens.
Falling or threatened roofs continue to be one of the undiscovered issues which follow unexpectedly heavy snow. What happened to the January thaw?
And, while you’re raking snow off your roof or dealing with quaking building supports, don’t forget your vehicle. No parking in the streets for the foreseeable future, as parking bans are enforced in Meriden, Southington, and Wallingford.
Garry Brumback spent his first day on the job as Southington’s new town manager helping to plan for a snowstorm today. Well, he’s used to disaster planning from his time along the Gulf Coast; we’re confident he can handle it.
Discussion of a bill to protect Connecticut municipalities from suit following injuries on public lands. There’s obviously room for improvement here, but there must also be compromise, too.
Meriden, Wallingford, Southington and Cheshire have all published their grand lists, and each is a little different, leading the prognosticators to see what can be read among the tea leaves.
As Meriden’s Deputy Chief David Bowen says, remember to clear the snow from your fire hydrant. In a fire emergency, every second can count.
