Power out for many areas in Quinte

Posted on Sunday, December 28th, 2008

Hydro One is reporting countless power outages as a result of the extreme weather.

A caller to our newsroom says the power went out in rural Marmora and Lake around 9:30 this morning.

Hydro One is reporting power outages across Ontario, sweeping eastward alongside the storm.

The areas hardest hit in our listening area right now seem to be those around Tweed…where thousands of households are without electricity.

A diagram on the power company’s Web site shows the longer the wind has been in an area, the greater the extent of the damage.

    THe Hydro One web site isn’t even working at 17:00. What other way is there to find out the status?
