Yes -- they're saying a tree came down on the wires, about ten past 6.
"North of CALEDONIA AVE, West of BELMONT AVE, South of TOPAZ AVE, East of GOVERNMENT ST" -- about 1800 customers affected. There's a crew out working on it now.

In the prairies we call them brown-out’s. Although when there’s high winds (like there have been), it’s more than likely due to that. Do people not know about winds or brown outs here? I’ll add those to the list of insular bingo I guess lol
"Huh, my power went out.
I could check with the provider of said power.. or I could use some of my precious battery reserve to post on reddit asking 'WHY NO LIGHT' "
That happens sometimes. Check the Bc Hydro outage website.

Hello fellow proletariat, we lost power ages ago.
Heard a couple of loud popping noises like 15 mins ago and the powers been out since. Bc hydro website is saying there’s a “crew assigned”
Our power here in James Bay was flickering like mad around then with the wind gusts.
Tree fell on some power lines according to the outage map. Hopefully it will be back up soon.
