Storm kills power, backs up traffic in Seymour

By Register Staff
SEYMOUR — Heavy rain and flooding early Friday evening caused power outages and traffic back-ups on local roads and Route 8, police said.
By late Friday, 263 Connecticut Light & Power customers in town were without power, according to the utility's website.
Parts of Route 67 flooded and were still closed at 10 p.m. Earlier in the night, a tree fell onto the road near McDonald’s, Derby Avenue sustained heavy flooding, and Route 8 was backed up around Exit 22 because of flooding.
Emergency crews late Friday were evaluating roads and power problems.
