I'm in the NW (Citadel) and the power went out for about 3 minutes before coming back on. I know someone who lives in Springbank and his neighbour's roof blew off the house. This wind is crazy!

I blame it on the Brent Sutter and the Flames powerplay.

Having bit of network issues at this moment. It seems Shaw is pretty slow.

Didn't lose it, but my UPSes have been beeping lots today with surges/dips.

Yuh, ive been getting lots of UPS notifications of brown outs at our office building in SW. Stupid wind, I have to go into work if power goes out.

Edit- Thanks to the APC notification system, I can get hundreds of emails on days like today.

My lights in the kitchen flickered once or twice, but not enough to actually shut anything off. Coffee kept brewing along.

Still without power southwest of the city and the neighbours and me have been losing shingles off our roofs. Big wind.

On the plus side its toasty and I've been outside shovelling tons of dry leaves up and into the wind, watching them sail majestically away into the field.

Everything you say is poetry.

At the Superstore in Westhills. Power has flicked a couple of times.

Lights have flickered a bit here in Canyon Meadows, but thus far no actual power loss.
