About 2 hours after Eversource issued a notice bracing consumers with a warning to dig in until Friday evening, power began to pop up here and there. This morning, all but a thumb aid in delivering this transmission and outages are now being measured in hundreds. As moderate temperatures remain on tap, I will plan on a blanket statement at the end of the day in regards to outages. As mentioned, the culprit this go around, save for the garden variety downed line, was an issue with a transformer which is essentially the hub that services Harwich to P-Town.
We picked up a dusting to an inch overnight as we remain a tick north of the freezing mark and aim to find the low 40’s today. Until late afternoon where I should have a better idea of what round 4 looks as it appears ready to welcome the first day of Spring.
As a lifelong resident of the outer Cape I was the third generation to pick up the mantel in the family construction business. In my early twenties, I called the Cape my home on weekends as I spent several years working for a variety of off-Cape commercial construction companies. My site supervision resume includes two supermarkets, two HUD projects, a funeral home and a handful of steel industrial buildings as well as various restaurant and office remodels.
