The North Haven Fire Department will respond to residents along the areas of the Muddy River and Quinnipiac River to help with flooded basements and prepare sandbags.

Norwich emergency management officials are preparing sandbags and other materials to be available to the public.

Shelton police put notices on people's doors to let residents know the water could rise quickly throughout today and into tomorrow.
