A quick shout out and thank you to @hydroottawa for going above and beyond early this morning. We had a 10 hour power outage after very brief but powerful rainstorm last night. The guys were great, friendly and helpful.

So far power appears to be back on in Trend Arlington and Craig Henry. I’m monitoring the Hydro Ottawa Outage Map to see what areas remain out. Hydro has told me the outage was due to temporary loss of supply from the provincial grid.

I'm getting notices about a power outage in the Fisher Heights / Parkwood Hills area, starting just about 10 minutes ago. There's nothing up on @hydroottawa Outage Map just yet. I'll post update ASAP.

Wonderful. Another power outage with not a cloud in the sky. Maybe we need to look at why? @hydroottawa
