High winds and rain have knocked down trees and utility wires around the region and now comes the clean-up. Power is out in places and crews are working to get the power turned back on.

Ocean Point was cut off from East Boothbay as a big tree has fallen across the road near the Methodist Church. At 1:15 p.m., one lane was opened at East Boothbay.  This story will be updated.

Update 1:54 p.m.: Power is out near the traffic light in Boothbay Harbor. An officer is there directing traffic.

Update 2:58 p.m.: Access to Back Narrows Road is very limited.
