Flooding from Winter Storm Finn near Pond Point Beach in Milford, Conn.

Our region deals with the aftermath of heavy rains overnight. Governor Hochul addresses a sense of unease from New Yorkers in her State of the State message. There’s confusion in Fairfield over the sudden cancellation of a school event. And how one Long Island man used an app to document thousands of species last year.
