Several thousand Connecticut residents remained without power Monday after a weekend in the dark brought on by Friday's no'easter.
As of 3 p.m. Monday Eversource was reporting around 2,500 customers without power.
Eversource officials said as of Sunday evening they had restored power to 174,000 homes and businesses since the start of the storm. Officials estimated there were around 500 broken utility poles, 87 miles worth of electrical lines down, and nearly 400 roadblocks over the course of the storm.
Eversource had estimated that the vast majority of customers would be restored by 9 p.m. Sunday but scattered outages remained Monday, with areas in western Connecticut seeing the most issues.
Because of power outages from Friday's storm, Greenwich Academy is closed Monday.

Neighboring Massachusetts was hard-hit, with significant flooding and wind damage along coastal areas. With another storm coming Wednesday, there are concerns the debris could cause even more damage.
Much of the east coast was affected by the storm, which is being blamed for nine deaths.
