MASSACHUSETTS -- Emergency crews and power companies are working in the Bay State. There are power lines down in many areas, leaving thousands of people in the dark in Massachusetts.
A spokesman for National Grid there says to be prepared for possible extended outages.
National Grid Spokesman Fred Kippen said, "There's a huge tree has come down and taken down all the primary lines which feed into Andover and North Andover. So the work ahead of us, we've got two broken poles, I've got a transformer on the ground."
According to Massachusetts utilities, the biggest outages are in the coastal areas.
