On Friday night, Easthampton had a hard frost. As a result, we have lifted the ban of outdoor activities from dusk to dawn that has been in effect due to a high risk for serious mosquito-borne illnesses (EEE and West Nile Virus).

Outdoor activities may now resume since the temperature fell below 28 degrees for a minimum of two hours. The city of Easthampton is also lifting its nighttime activity restrictions.

Thank you for your help and patience as we took the necessary precautions to ensure that our community is safe and healthy.

Sincerely,

Bob Hill
