Just A Few Power Outages Remain

NB Power almost has everyone in the Rothesay District back on in the aftermath of last week's big wind storm but, as of early this morning, there are still ten outages being reported which affect 28 customers. 

Julie Drummond lives in Upperton and she was still without power late yesterday afternoon while all the people who live around her were back on and wonders if she somehow fell through the cracks.

What's it like being without power for so long? Drummond says all her food is a writeoff but she does have a wood stove to keep the house warm, adding even during the ice storm, the power wasn't off as long.
