Well I'm not sure myself they said it was caused firstly by the lightning that hit the power plant on the U.S. of the Niagra Region but there have also been talk that it was caused by something wrong in Ohio which I am not certain. I live in Toronto and was hit by this.. I was actually mowing the lawn at the time and at the moment when I had jsut finished the power went off.. I was wondering why the central air conditioner had suddenly turned off... THis has been a trying two days and apparently there will be many more till monday.. Power here is bing gradually brought back however there isnt enough of it and there are rolling blackouts as in they switch a section of the city offline from the power to bring another to life for a while.. Hopefully it wont happen here but who knows? We shall see! (I must say someone better upgrade that power grid or at least set it that ppl dont have to rely on one grid alone so that this wont happen!
