Dorian


Well peeps hurricane Dorian came ashore in the small Province of Nova Scotia as a category 2 hurricane on Saturday 7th...and let me tell you what a ride! Over 400,000 people lost power and there was alot of very large trees split off that dropped over the power lines, cell phone service was completely lost and internet as well...
My basement flooded and when i could finally get a neighbor to start my old piece of shit generator the level was up two feet...Rain in torrents and wind was so extreme when i looked out at my trees some of the younger ones tops touched the ground...Gusts were up to 175 miles an hour in some places and i do believe that..Halifax NS was hit really hard and the wind was so strong it toppled a hugh crane and when the crane crashed down it hit and tore off the roof of the building below and took part of the roof of an apartment complex ..The rest of the apartment building roof was taken by the wind....
In my neck of the woods and around the area trees were uprooted and lay across the pavement ...two at the next door neighbors went down...before i could get pics the guy had his tractor out the next day and pulled them away...water levels at the coast reached 5 meters and flooded the secondary roads...One store Mom and Pops Convienence store including a small liquor store attached caught on fire on Sunday and burnt to the ground ..thats about 5 minutes away from me..it supposedly from a faulty generator...Power to most of NS, PEI, and Cape Breton ..plus Nfld was out ..Mine was out four days and finally came on this morning...still says 150,000 people are still without power<b>...suspension </font></b>bridges were under water because of the high tides...
Well thats about it folks and of course i hope everyone is safe that rode out Dorian ..and hope power is on for them soon ..but according to NS Power it may take another week for all to be restored....

no we had one in 2010 that was a big blow and of course rain but it was classified as a tropical storm when it hit..we are used to mostly Nor ' Easters which does pack a real bad punch for wind not alo of rain but its still a faorce to be reckoned with ..this was awesome but deadly if in the right place and right time glad for the Nor' Easters not in love with the hurricane..thanks hon
