On Thursday evening, many people around North Andover were likely saying "Oh no, not again."
Power outages started occurring sporadically around town. During the evening commute, power was out in several places on Route 114 from the North Andover up to near Panera.
Police said that was caused by a fallen wire on Waverly Street that burned through an insulator. National Grid fixed that wire.
