It was a big blow for awhile in Halifax, NS. I lost power at 11 am yesterday, got it back at 11 today. Musch of Halifax was out of power overnight, though lights could be seen in business areas all around us(like downtown). You could hear the power generators a'buzzing all aroound. No street or traffic lights in most places.

Most of the damage was big tree limbs and some full trees. A coastal drive between Halifax and Lunenburg showed trees and limbs on the ground today.

But, it was nothing anywhere like Hurricane Juan in Halifax a few years ago. Just a little storm with some minor effects.....and some overtime for the power crews.
