A tree took down power, cable and phone lines on Black Road in Wilton during high winds Tuesday morning. Trees and lines started falling at about 2:48 a.m., Wilton Deputy Rescue Chief Tom Doak said. A power outage also kept the Jay Town Office from opening Tuesday morning after it was discovered the town’s generator was dead, Town Manager Shiloh LaFreniere said.
