A storm knocked out power in parts of the Rainy River district overnight.

About 240 Hydro One customers were without power for about three hours beginning at 11 p.m.

About twenty homes are still in the dark and Hydro One expects to have power restored to them by 9:30 a.m. today.

Some Fort Frances residents were also affected by an power outage yesterday.

Parts of the north end and the downtown area lost power at around 10:30 a.m.

Crews with Fort Frances Power Corporation had power restored to all areas by about 1 p.m.
