It's been a busy few days for plow drivers, especially in eastern Connecticut. Monday's storm added a few more inches of snow to what fell on Friday.
Eleven inches of snow fell in Killingly on Friday. Snow began to fall around 8 a.m. Monday morning.
Highway crews were out hours earlier preparing the roadways, which includes a fleet of 17 salt trucks.
"Clean it up, get ready for the next time, make your repairs, refill your supplies and go back out at it and get rest in between when you can," described highway superintendent, Travis Sirrine, on the fast-paved nature of the job with back-to-back storms.
Crews also dealt with trees and branches falling on homes, cars and roadways.
A water main also broke as result of the cold temperatures.
Killingly also had about 500 power outages early Monday morning, according to Eversource.
Power lines fell in Slater Hill Road around 3 AM Monday. Some house on that street spent hours operating by generator.
One home using a generator even sheltered the neighborhood's pets to keep them warm until the power was back on.
As of 6:50 PM Monday, there was only one outage in Killingly.
