Dear fellow Hanoverians:
Unless you have been in Pasadena with the Hanover kids who marched with the
UMass Marching Band in the Tournament of Roses parade, by the time you read
this, you are well aware that there is a winter storm upon us. :)
In case you missed it, Hanover Schools are closed as are Hanover Town Hall,
the John Curtis Library, and the Senior Center. Updates about tomorrow
will surely be posted on the Hanover MA and Hanover Public Schools Facebook
and Twitter pages.
There is a regional shelter that opened at 7:00 a.m. this morning in
Scituate for anyone who needs it sooner rather than later. Hanover’s
shelter crew is on standby as I write this (8:30 a.m. Thursday), with
discussions about warming areas also occurring. Again, stay tuned to
social media to keep up.
In case of a power outage, make sure you report it to National Grid – even
if you think your neighbor already did. It helps them to track numbers,
and helps Hanover emergency management folks to identify folks in need of
assistance.
I had a conversation with our Hanover Nurse Administrator yesterday who is
particularly concerned about our elderly neighbors who might not have
access to cell phones and/or social media in case of a power outage.
Please, please, reach out to those folks today and tomorrow as the weather
unfolds. It’s just what we do here in Hanover.
Stay safe, and stay warm.
