NEW HAVEN Hurricane season once again is drawing near, bringing the threat of flooding and severe weather to Connecticut.
At this point, while experts predict a greater-than-average number of notable storms in the Atlantic Ocean, the summer months are expected to produce fewer than in 2020.
But state residents should get ready just in case, according to experts. It’s unclear whether a storm will hit Connecticut, but it would far from unusual, and it’s better to be prepared for the eventuality, they said.

“Where’s Jim Judge, the invisible Eversource boss?” one local columnist’s headline read.
That may have added to the public’s frustration with the company, which months later continues to take criticism for how it responded to the storm, though Eversource officials say some of the Monday-morning quarterbacking is unwarranted, especially since the major weather event was worse than initially forecast and took place amid a pandemic.
Regardless, don’t expect to see similar headlines with Joe Nolan now in charge. That’s because Nolan, who started as Eversource’s new CEO on May 5, said he will be a much more public figure, and one of his top priorities is to restore customers’ confidence in the company.
