Residents of Cape Cod, Massachusetts are bracing for high winds ahead of the expected storm.
About 10 days ago, strong winds contributed to power outages in many places. At least 600 Eversource customers were affected. There were also downed trees and the Martha’s Vineyard dock flooded.
Wind gusts reached 57 mph.
A little while ago, the police issued a warning for people to be ready. Very strong winds are expected and damage is possible. Residents should immediately secure things that could fall. For example pots and other heavy objects. Bring them home.
A public room will be opened for people in need.
The Dennis Center for Aging in South Dennis on Route 134 will be open for that purpose.
The temperature is currently 43 degrees Fahrenheit. It’s raining and snowing. The wind is 17 mph.
In the coming days, its speed will almost double.
