About this episode
A Wednesday evening windstorm has knocked out power to thousands of BC Hydro customers in eastern parts of the Fraser Valley. By about 11: 30 p.m., crews had been trying to restore power for up to 35,000 customers as 100 km/h winds hit some areas. At least one home has been hit by a fallen tree in Mission. Fire crews have been dealing with numerous reports of downed power lines. The storm has dumped close to two feet of snow on parts of the Coquihalla Highway - blizzard conditions are responsible for several crashes.
