Coffee Event Postponed, Cold Weather Safety, and more

January 23, 2026

Dear Neighbor,

Due to the impending winter storm, Rep. Marcus Brown and I have decided to postpone our upcoming legislative coffee hour, which was scheduled for this Sunday. We will follow up as soon as we have rescheduled!

Governor Ned Lamont activated Connecticut’s Severe Cold Weather Protocol today at noon, and it will remain in effect until noon on Wednesday, January 28, due to a blast of extremely cold air that will impact the state during this period.

Please be reminded that warming centers throughout the area are available for individuals and families in need. You can search for them here. These locations provide a safe, heated space during extreme cold conditions.

Please see below for information on how to stay connected in our community during an outage and emergency, and for an update from Mayor Ganim on the declared snow emergency and parking ban beginning at 6am tomorrow.

Wishing you a wonderful weekend. As always, please feel free to reach out directly with your ideas, questions, or concerns. You can reach me by phone at (860) 240-8585 or (203) 522-3037.

Take care,
