Schools closed Tuesday as over 100,000 homes and businesses in Mass. remain without power

Many schools on the South Shore are closed Tuesday, as thousands remain without power a day after a deadly storm lashed New England.

Cohasset, Duxbury, Millis and Scituate are among the schools that cancelled classes Tuesday as ongoing outages impact the area, according to NBC Boston. In Scituate, 92% of homes and businesses remained without power as of 7:10 a.m. Tuesday, according to data from the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency.

Across the state, over 131,000 customers were still in the dark.

Scituate Town Administrator Jim Boudreau told WBUR on Monday evening that recovery would take time after the storm's intensity.

"It was, I guess, mayhem for a little while, with things just coming down and wires coming down," said Boudreau. "So, it's going to take a while to get everything cleaned up."

The storm had intense impacts across the region. In New Hampshire and Vermont, heavy rain combined with snowmelt from temperatures in the 60s flooded rivers and roads. The National Weather Service issued flood and flash-flood warnings for New York City and the surrounding area, parts of Pennsylvania, upstate New York, western Connecticut, western Massachusetts and parts of Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine.

Flood warnings remained in place Tuesday morning in parts of Massachusetts and around New England.
