CBC News Crews were still clearing debris and repairing hydro lines a day after a windstorm described as the worst to hit southwestern British Columbia in more than 30 years.
B.C. Hydro said about 5,000 homes and businesses remained without power Sunday morning along the coast, just south of Vancouver. The storm battered the region with gusts hitting 110 km/hr. High winds combined with a high tide to send water over a sea wall and into the streets and backyards of Delta and Tsawwassen. |
