NL got hammered along the coast with severe damage coming with sea swells. Unfortunately there was a 73 year old lady that was swept out to sea. Apparently her and her husband were evacuating their houses when she went back inside to get something. That's all it took for the house to be taken by the ocean with her inside.
In Corner Brook we lost power here for a couple of hours but it never really got too bad. The communities on the coast got hammered though, a lot of destruction.
Hope our friends in the other provinces get power back sooner rather than later!
