Power Outages on Weekend

Some residents in the Rainy River district found themselves in the dark this past weekend.

Hydro One spokesperson Danielle Gauvin says strong winds Saturday night caused a number of outages

"In the Fort Frances, there was 2,000 (customer without power)," says Gauvin, "but it wasn't all at one. It was from about Saturday midnight to about noon yesterday. All of those outages were resolved yesterday."

Gauvin says separate outages were also reported in the Devlin and Nestor Falls areas.
