SCITUATE EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY

Storm Update 7: 9 AM
Posted on: December 20, 2023 - 9:11am

As of 9 am, less than 200 Scituate customers served by National Grid do not have power. Complete power restoration may take up to 24 hours from today. Teams from National Grid and contracted crews are diligently working to restore power by midnight tonight.

If you are a Scituate resident experiencing a power outage and anticipating needing shelter tonight, please contact 781-545-8748 before 4 pm.

National Grid crews will never request money from residents. There have been reported cases in surrounding towns where tree cleanup crews falsely claimed affiliation with National Grid and sought payment for their services. If anyone approaches you asserting they are with National Grid asking for payment, please contact National Grid at 1-800-465-1212 or the Scituate Police Department at 781-545-1212.

The Transfer Station is open today, Wednesday, 12/20, from 8 am to 3:30 pm.

Please check in on your elderly or disabled neighbors, especially during these challenging circumstances. Extend a helping hand by ensuring they are safe and comfortable and have access to any assistance they might need.

For any emergency situation and downed wires, please call 911 or 781-545-1212 for non-emergencies. Please contact National Grid at 1-800-465-1212 to report an outage. Ensure generators are operated outdoors and away from living spaces.
