UPDATE: South Portland Fire Dept. says Graffam is not, nor has ever been, employed by the Dept. after photos emerged on social media of Graffam wearing a South Portland Fire Dept. sweatshirt with his name embroidered on it.

The powerful nor’easter has caused a lot of damage. Our first priority in the power restoration process is working with MEMA and EMA to open roads that are currently closed by downed power lines. Once that is complete, we will assess the damage and start repair.

[SouthPortlandFD @SouthPortlandFD]

Looks like the coast should expect some high winds which could lead to power outages. Make sure you have everything charged up tonight before it starts.

[NWS Gray @NWSGray]

A storm will bring gusty winds to the region tonight. Take a few minutes today to get ready. Secure outdoor items such as patio furniture and trash cans. Check your emergency kit to ensure you have plenty of batteries and other essential supplies on hand. https://t.co/DgoGCYrgnL

Remembering the anniversary of our Department’s first LODD 22 years ago today.

An All Hands was struck at 2021 for 24 Edmund S Muskie Rd for a structure fire. Ambulance 41 arrived and reported visible fire and entered the building and located and removed one victim. Engine 48 arrived shortly after and quickly extinguished the fire. There were no injuries.
