Those who decide to go trick-or-treating are asked to take extreme caution with many trees and power wires down.

The Village of Mamaroneck is also asking parents to refrain from participating in trick-or-treating Wednesday because of the dangers of downed trees and limbs.

Additionally, tax payments due Wednesday in the Town of Mamaroneck will be accepted until Friday at 4 p.m. Tax payments mailed in must be postmarked with an official postal stamp by Friday.

About half of Mamaroneck and two-thirds of Larchmont were still without power Wednesday afternoon, according to the Con Edison website. There are 3,656 outages in the village, 3,577 in the town and 1,543 in Larchmont.
