This email from Kristine Trierweiler this morning (we judged debates at the Medfield High School) –
Good morning,
As we found out during the MSH debates today, the power went out this AM due to a blown transformer at South and Oak. NSTAR is on the scene have isolated the power outage to directly around the transformer. Town Hall was without power for about an hour, the emergency generator failed to kick in, the generator is now up and running and we have full power restored at the street.
Unfortunately due to the abrupt power outage it has disabled the phone system, the phone company is on the way out now but I understand the server was “fried” as well as the battery backup so it could be a few days without phones. I will post on the website, twitter etc, direct emails to departments for people who need to reach us at the town hall.
I will keep you posted…via email!
