Thousands without power as severe storms roll through Connecticut

NBCUniversal Media, LLC

Several rounds of severe storms moved through Connecticut Friday evening.

The storms took down trees in some towns and knocked out power to more than 14,000 Eversource customers.

A severe thunderstorm watch remained in effect for most of Connecticut Friday night, but the threat of severe weather is diminishing as the night goes on.

It will also be warm and muggy on Saturday and Sunday, with a few showers or storms each afternoon. Then we will have more of the same Monday.

The NBC Connecticut meteorologists are tracking Hurricane Lee, which is a Category 5 hurricane but has not impacted land.
