SH> a horrible storm that knocked out hydro everywhere
I've been following the news via Google, particularly about the area
around my home town in eastern Ontario (Cobden, in the Whitewater
region of Renfrew county) It was quite possibly the worst (summer)
storm in my lifetime. The only worse weather event would have been
the great ice storm of 1998.
Large Derecho storms with hurricane force winds knocking down
hundreds of trees and tornado watches that far north are unheard of.
I read that one guy there was killed by a falling tree with another
death a couple of towns further away. (Nobody I knew, but still
startling to read.)
Cheers
Jim
