Heavy rains and winds brought down many trees and electrical wires leaving thousands of residents in the dark. Around 6:00 p.m. I was returning home from New Jersey and it took me over an hour to make what should have been a 2 minute ride from the Merritt Parkway to my home, which is in the backcountry section of town. The main road to my home, Round Hill Road, was blocked with down trees and wires, and, the alternative routes, Riversville Road, John Street and Will Merry Road were also blocked making it difficult for me to make it home.
