Connecticut Deluged by '1,000-Year' Rain
The technical definition for a 1,000-year rain event is one that has 0.1% probability of occurring in a given year, explains the Washington Post. On Sunday, multiple places in Connecticut experienced the not-so-technical reality of that. A swath of western Connecticut qualified with 3.5 inches in a single hour, tweeted one meteorologist. Another tweeted the threshold was broached in Shelton. The towns of Oxford and Southbury, meanwhile, received more than 10 inches of rain, making it “close” to the mark, per NBC Connecticut.
Flash flood warnings were in effect from the National Weather Service in several areas, including Fairfield, New Haven, Litchfield, and Hartford counties. Water rescue operations also were taking place, and CT Insider reports that two people remain missing after being swept into the Little River in the town of Oxford. Sunday’s heavy rains are unrelated to the effects of Hurricane Ernesto, reports the AP. The flood warnings also were posted for southeastern New York and for areas in Delaware, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. (More Connecticut stories.)

WALLINGFORD, Conn. (WFSB) – The Connecticut Department of Transportation is marking two years since the death of Andrew DiDomenico, a DOT worker killed in a work zone crash on June 28, 2024, in Wallingford.
DiDomenico, 26, of Meriden, was struck and killed while working along the shoulder of the Wharton Brook Connector of Interstate 91.
Denise Lucibello, 55, of East Haven, was driving under the influence when her vehicle left the roadway and struck him, according to the state’s attorney’s office.
Lucibello was sentenced to 10 years in prison, execution suspended after five years served, followed by five years of probation. She pleaded guilty to second-degree manslaughter and operating a motor vehicle under the influence.
“The defendant chose to drive under the influence and because of that choice, a young life full of promise was senselessly taken,” State’s Attorney John P. Doyle Jr. said.
DiDomenico’s family started the Andrew DiDomenico Memorial Foundation to honor his legacy and provide scholarships and donations in his name.
CT DOT continues to remind drivers to keep others in mind on the road and themselves.
“Roadside workers put themselves at risk every time they step onto a job site, and it’s on all of us to keep them safe. Drive sober, put the phone away, and slow down and move over in work zones. Lives depend on it.”
