Just got the power back after almost 4 days, whew, glad as moving generators all over the neighbourhood all day and night is tiring. No power, phones, cell phones or internet during outage.
Got 144 mm of rain which is darned close to 6 inches in about 12 hours. Fields are saturated or underwater in some cases.
On our 20 acres of woodlot there is at least 100 full cords of blown down trees. Whole patches of 65 year old spruce and white pine laid over.

Nice break from modern living to enjoy working with neighbours cutting trees and getting water!
