Nova Scotia Storm

On December 13th, we received an unexpected storm called a weather bomb.  With hurricane force winds.  We lost out power at 8 pm Monday evening and didn't get it back until Wednesday at 11 pm.  If you didn't have a generator you got a little cold by then, which we did.  Luckly we have a wood furnace in the garage and eventually went there for warmth.  We normally don't get storm like this.  You sure learn in a hurry what is important.  Like your family, are they safe.  No water, power, our phone was knocked out until Thursday.  I can't imagine how they did it years ago.  I lasted until Wednesday at 8 pm, my daughters power was back on in Port Williams so I went there for the night.  But I no sooner left and the power came back on here at 11 pm.  I almost outlasted it.  But survivor and Hells Kitchen were coming on, whats a girl to do!

Me trying to get to work the next morning.  Didn't realize the devastation until we discovered it the next day.

On my way back home, I could not believe my eyes.  This just doesn't happen around here!

A house just up pasted my moms place.  Two poles were broken.

Over at our local University.

The Valley View Trailer Park was hit quite hard.  Trees falling right on their homes.  It was evacuated.

Over in our town on Summer Street.

Up on the Mountain.  A cottage did not fair so well.

The roof collapsed on this new home.
