EASTON, MA — Easton power outages on Tuesday stretched into a fifth day following a devastating nor'easter. As of Tuesday morning, there were still 1,327 without power in Plymouth, according to National Grid. That figure represents 13 percent of town.
Statewide, more than 17,000 were without power Tuesday — 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.
