| Comments | Prince Edward Island, January 28, 2008. An ice storm that brought snow, freezing rain and heavy rain knocked out power to over 20,000 customers (approximately 60,000 individuals) in Prince Edward Island. Snow followed by heavy rain created layers of ice that downed trees and power lines. Mostly central and western parts of the provinces were affected, with Prince County being hit the hardest by the power outages. The power outages lasted over a week and the province received help from New Brunswick Hydro workers. Heavy rain also caused flooding in parts of Cape Breton. |
