Yeah, it's bad. Which Gas station? Seems like.. well.. all of them at this point.

Looking at the map it feels like the noose is getting tighter!

The lights keep flickering in the house, but it's not common for Fraserview to be out of power though.

Outages on the Island are unreal. According to the BC Hydro Outage map, it seems like the entire stretch from Parksville all the way down to Victoria is out of power.

Side note: fuck these websites and their regional blocking. What do they think they're accomplishing by not letting overseas Canadians see their website? All it takes is a VPN.

So I noticed that too while I was in HK. There were outages and I wanted to see if my house was affected. Nope, can't see shit. People travel... what kind of fucking dumbass idea......

Thank the jerks who try to mess with them and make the region blocking necessary.

Hows YVR doing? I'm supposed to bounce through there tomorrow.

I believe YVR is on it's own underground grid. It's fine.

I has been, 1 day since an airplane crashed at YVR. Good luck! (Everything's fine it was an Amazon plane and no one was hurt but it's causing delays)

Bit of a nothing burger in South Van area. Just strong winds, all the leaves are blown off the trees but no power outage. It is quite calm right now.

10 minutes after I posted I lost power and still don't have it. It could be days before power is back everywhere.
