It's been 4 hours since the power went out. It all started around five pm with lots of rain pouring down. There was a little bit of thunder in the air but mostly lots of rain. I watched the news for an hour (and then the power went out) and learned that they were about to close some roads and there were some power outages somewhere.
So I spent about 2,5 hours talking with my landlord about all sort of things. She was really lucky as she probably was able to come home with the last working train. Sadly there was no power so she was not able to cook herself a dinner. There was something to eat, so she is not starving.
There has been record flow of water and there still is coming some rain down. There have been over 100 000 people in next city without electricity, there are mixed numbers for the Toronto area. I have heard 6 000 for different areas (even for this area here). Lots of flooding on the roads, rails and in peoples homes.
So yeah, I am glad I am safe and dry in my basement apartment with no electricity. It is pretty late, so who needs electricity anyway. Nights are for sleeping.
