Power restoration is continuing in Toronto after severe thunderstorms hit the Greater Toronto Area earlier this week, leaving thousands of customers without electricity.
Toronto Hydro said fewer than 2,500 customers were still without power Friday morning, while crews worked around the clock to restore service. At the storm’s peak, outages affected about 65,000 homes and businesses.
The storm brought heavy rain, strong winds, flooding, fallen trees and downed power lines. Roads that were closed during the storm have reopened, though some traffic signals may still be affected. City and provincial officials said crews are continuing cleanup and repair work across the region.
