UPDATE, 2:07pm: Power has been restored by Wellesley Municipal Light Plant in Wellesley.
This just in from the Wellesley Police Department:
“WPD Alert: Large power outage in Wellesley, including Wellesley Hills and Lower Falls area. Wellesley Municipal Light Plant is working on the situation.”
The police don’t say why the lights are out, but I’m guessing it has something to do with the wicked winds I hear blowing outside.
Please stay upright, giant and majestic pine tree presiding over that corner of my back yard, needles indecorously showing their underside as the weather toys with the idea of doing damage.
I’ve noticed that power outages in Wellesley are rare and short-lived. Our Municipal Light Plant guys are great at preventing and fixing problems.
