Several roads in town were closed due to falling trees or utility poles from Friday’s nor’easter, but as of Sunday evening, all roads had reopened except for Hilliard Road.
Lincoln Road residents Wendy and Lem Kusik had a close call as an 80-foot spruce crashed down right next to their house, tearing out utility lines. Weston Road was also closed after a pole snapped in front of the Pierce House. Dozens of residents lost power because of the storm, notably in the Tower Road/Pierce Hill Road and Silver Hill Road areas, but only 15 customers were still without electricity as of Sunday evening, according to Eversource’s outage map.
The utility said most of its customers in the greater Boston and MetroWest area would have power restored by Sunday night, but those on the south shore may have to wait until Monday or Tuesday night. More than 50,000 customers on the South Shore and Cape Cod were still without power last night, but Eversource said they should be back on line by Wednesday night.
