Another near miss for major storm

February 16, 2024 By Deborah Anderson, Express Staff

By late Monday night the ominous forecast of a powerful Nor’easter on Tuesday, became much less drastic as the storm’s track began to pull away, leaving much of the area with much less precipitation than originally forecast.
Plympton’s Fire Captain John Sjostedt reported a vehicle accident that shut down Prospect Road for about five hours while the utility pole, the only casualty in the accident, was replaced. The driver, the only occupant in the van, was not injured. The accident took place in the vicinity of 62 Prospect Road. Power was out in the area for a short time.
Coastal Kingston didn’t see much of any snow accumulation, and Deputy Fire Chief Adam Hatch said his department noted no appreciable affect, no flooding of note. “We dodged a bullet this time.”
Halifax Fire Dept. said they had no unusual situations due to the storm.
