Hurricane Irene in Weston CT 06883 Hurricane Irene has had quite an impact on our communities here in CT, and especially here in Fairfield County.  There are flooded basements, flooded roads, trees down everywhere, no power, no cable, and thank goodness, no need for heat. Everywhere we drove today there were trees blocking the roads, and wires hanging across the roads.   Along all of the river banks, there was flooding.   I believe this picture taken in Weston CT 06883 is worth a thousand words.
