Monster wind storm

    At 10:30 am today (Friday) the hydro power was lost and not returned until  5:15 pm.  Over 10,000 residents were without power in the Baptiste Lake/Bancroft area.   The strong winds resulted in 7 trees having to be chainsawed to clear the road between the island and Ojibway Road, perhaps a record.

    Although there are some trees down on some cottage lanes, no visible cottage damage on residences that could be viewed.  Some heavy rain but no washouts on the road.
