Due to far below normal precipitation and ongoing fire danger levels, a Stage 2 Drought Advisory has been declared for Connecticut. Residents are encouraged to be mindful of water consumption and use extra caution to prevent fires. An emergency burn ban is in effect at all state parks, forests, and wildlife management areas, prohibiting the use of all outdoor grills, firepits, campfires, etc.

The Federal Government has reopened COVIDtests.gov. Every household can order four over-the-counter COVID-19 tests for free. These tests are intended for use throughout the 2024 holiday season to detect currently circulating COVID-19 variants. Please visit COVIDtests.gov for your free test.
