Falmouth Power Outages Down To 50

FALMOUTH, MA — Falmouth power outages on Tuesday stretched into a fifth day following a devastating nor'easter, though full restoration was within sight. As of Tuesday morning, there were still 58 without power in Falmouth, according to Eversource. That figure represents less than 1 percent of town.

Statewide, more than 17,000 were without power Tuesday morning — mostly in Southeastern Massachusetts and on Cape Cod. Outages were expected to persist into mid-week or later, according to the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency.

Another nor'easter will hit Eastern Massachusetts Wednesday, though it will be weaker than Friday's storm.

At the height of Friday's storm, more than 450,000 lost power across Massachusetts. In Barnstable, more than 75 percent of town lost power.
