mbarrickLooks like someone hit a pole down on Pender. There are police down at the end of the block and a firetruck just went by. The power is out in our building, the old house next door, the other old apartment on Bute, and all the traffic signals on Georgia are out. As I've typing this several other sirens have gone by. I imagine there are plenty of accidents all along Georgia right now.
The traffic signals and streetlights along Bute north of Georgia are all out, too. People are driving through the intersection at Melville without so much as slowing down - idiots.
Funny thing is all the new buildings still have power. There are obviously two grids in this area and the older one is the one that's been knocked out.
Hooray for candles and wireless handhelds.
