Update: Monday Oct. 29 9:45 p.m.

Branford Assistant Fire Chief Shaun Heffernan said all Branford crews and residents are safe as of 9:45 p.m. They've been responding to many calls th

evening due to Sandy's strong winds, which have taken down trees and powerlnes all over Branford.

At 9:45 p.m. there was no access to Indian Neck with flooding on Indian Neck Avenue and Meadow Street at Paul's Wire Rope and also at Limewood

Avenue making passage impossible.

An 86-year-old woman was in stable condition after a tree fell on her on East Main Street this evening, said Heffernan.

Rosenthal Gardens, a senior housing facility at 63 Kirkham Avenue was partially evacauted when a tree fell on it this evening, Heffernan said. Twelve

apartments were evacuated; half of the residents went to the Branford High School Shelter.

Heffernan said his message to residents: "Stay off the roads. Dont got out and sight-see. Let the utilities companies and public works get out and do

their jobs."

Heffernan said that also means on Tuesday as crews clean-up.

Nearly 100 people and 15 pets seek refuge at Branford Shelters during Sandy.

Branford Park & Recreation Director Alex Palluzzi said he spoke with First Selectman Anthony Unk DaRos who said theres no way to drive from stree

to street around Branford without having to make a detour.

Palluzzi, who has been helping organize the sheltering of residents, said there are about 50 people at Branford High School and 36 at Mary T. Murphy

School seeking refuge. There are also seven dogs and four cats at Murphy school.

The majority of residents came to the shelters between 5 and 8 p.m. when the weather seemed to be the worst.

There are more than 75 cots available. If you decide to use the shelter, please review the sheltering guide attached here.

About five elderly residents were relocated to Branford High School Shelter Palluzzi said, after a tree fell on their residence, Rosenthal Gardens, which

located at the corner of Kirkham and Main streets. The tree ruptured a gas line and some of the residents were evacuated. No one was injured during

the incident.

The Community Dining Room was able to serve beef stroganoff to residents Monday night. East Shore Health District has also been visiting shelters to

ensure safety.

Police have been visiting the shelters every hour on the hour, said Palluzzi.


Branford Fire Department has confirmed that a tree has fallen on a victim.

The Branford Fire Department has confirmed that a tree fell on one person in Branford during the height of Sandy's wind this evening, which kicked up

around 5 p.m. as the storm made landfall in New Jersey. At this point, the status of the person is unknown. The person was transported to a nearby

medical facility from the scene.

There have been many reports of trees and wires down all over town, including a tree on a trailer in park on Leetes Island Road that has not been

confirmed. There are no details if anyone was in the trailer when the tree fell.

We are hearing from residents along the shoreline that waters are continuing to rise; high tide is due in around 11:30 p.m.

There will be plenty of time to submit photos to Patch, so for now we ask residents to stay indoors and be safe!

Again, we have limited access to power and internet at this time. Many readers have been communicating in the comments here and on Branford

Patch Facebook to help each other out and check on the safety of family and friends.

Please be smart residents and stay indoors. Also allow the fire and police departments to get out and do what they need to do without interference.

Hi Nicole. I walked down Linden Ave towards South Montowese around 1:30 and noted many storm drains were completely covered with leaves. Iuncovered a few throwing the debris on higher ground, hopefully far enough away from it returning to drains. If people are out, check the drains and

clear them-it's a small way to reduce water build up on roads. Be safe!

Nicole Ball


Thank you Tina! Please be safe. The PWD was most concerned about those drains and the leaves continuing to clog. Any help to clear after

storm would be great too. Thanks again Tina!
