A quick check-in from Norwalk, CT. Power is out in about half the city due to trees down on the wires. Irene was downgraded to tropical storm as it came onshore and coincided with hi tide, flooding low lying areas of town. This was expected and not as bad as the nor’easters we get. We drove to check on family members across town and in general, inland damage appeared light. We did not get close to the coast. CL&P says power may take several days to restore. On the plus side, the air is clean and soft and smells of the ocean.
