There are thousands of power outages across Connecticut being reported by Eversource. One of the towns in this region hit the hardest is Newtown where more than 1,100 outages are reported.  There are several hundred other outages reported in each of the Greater Danbury area towns.   There was no immediate estimate for time of restoration because of the continued wind gusts.  Eversource crews can't get up in bucket trucks to evaluate the situation and restring utlity lines because of safety concerns.
