At approximately 4:30pm, due to the heavy snow and ice covered tree limbs, several roads were reported to have road blockage due to trees down.
As the wind continues to be expected to gust this evening is it likely that more incidents will be reported.
At this time, there is only 1 road closure in town. Currently US Route 5 between Latham Road and Bridge Rd (in North Thetford) is closed due to power lines down in the roadway.
Barricades and advanced warning signs have been placed.
PLEASE DO NOT DRIVE AROUND OR MOVE THESE BARRICADES AND SIGNS. They are placed for your safety.
In addition, a large portion of Thetford is currently without power. We do not have an ETA for the power to be restored at this time.
Additional updates will be posted with Route 5 is reopened or if there are additional incidents.
