NEWTON, MA — It's windy out there. So windy, that a tree has come down right across the MBTA's D line Branch. As such, watch for delays, folks.

The MBTA says eastbound service is suspended between Riverside and Newton Highlands because of the tree at Woodland. Service is delayed in both directions up to 15 minutes.

Zip up the jackets and wait for the shuttle buses.
