Dear fellow Hanoverians:
After only about 12 hours of no internet, phone or cable, “Around Town
on the Web” is back after a windy and rainy Hurricane Sandy couple of
days. Hope all is well with you and yours. As of 9:30 this morning,
891 Hanover households were without power. Please reach out to your
friends across town and offer them a place to shower, a warm meal, or
a cell phone recharging station.
As anyone with schoolchildren surely knows by now, Hanover Schools are
closed again today. Town Hall is open, however. Real estate taxes are
due on Thursday and the Registrar’s Office is preparing for election
day a week from today. A busy week, for sure!
One of my favorite new web pages to visit over the past couple of days
was the National Grid power outage map found here:
https://www1.nationalgridus.com/PowerOutageMap-MA-RES
. Another good source of storm information was the Hanover Emergency
Managment Twitter feed found at Hanover EMA on http://www.twitter.com
. Check it out if you have not already!
In the meantime, stay safe, and please connect with your neighbors.
It’s one of the many reasons why Hanover is a terrific small town.
For “Around Town on the Web”,
Cathy H-B
