I had taken this because of intrest and of because of the two major storms:
Tropical Storm Irene-Hurricane Irene and Nor'easter Alfred Winter Snow Storm Alfred October 2011
I had the had the opportunity to volunteer for The Town of Ridgefield,Connecticut KR1COM EOC Emergency Operations Center Radio Room during both storms.

Both these storms effected the power in our town and the State of Connecticut.
ABC News was in Town Of Ridgefield,CT Connecticut a few times during Nor'easter Alfred Winter Storm Alfred October 2011. Reporting about the power issues and also the temps droping and our shelter warming station.
