Power back on in Pinefield, was off around an hour
#Framingham

In what I'd consider one of the worst possible timing for a planned power shutdown, Eversource told me just now that they are shutting off power starting at 12:10 for up to 3 hours for emergency work around a downed tree limb. Part if not all of Pinefield will be affected, including a portion of Nicholas Road.

Another increase in Covid-19 test positivity in #Framingham, according to recent state data.
Year-over-year comparisons are pretty meaningless, since there are WAY fewer tests now vs 2022 (and so you'd expect positivity to be higher). But there have been similar testing numbers the past few weeks, yet positivity is considerably higher than 4 weeks ago.

Heat advisory? It's cool here in the shade on the #Framingham Centre Common listening to L&M Rhythm Kings. Here until 8!

From the city of #Framingham:

During the recent storm, it appears that a potential microburst struck Brook Street in Framingham. Due to the impact, Edgell Road leading north to Sudbury has been closed at Belknap Road, causing significant delays on Central Street

Central Street Closed headed west at Summer Street

Central Street Closed headed east at Prospect Street

In the affected area, there are reports of tree branches down.

Framingham, Massachusetts, is the first city in the US to use geothermal energy to heat and cool its buildings. The city has installed a network of pipes that circulate water underground, where it is naturally heated or cooled by the earth. The system reduces greenhouse gas emissions, saves money and improves comfort.
