Episode Details

A brutal storm slammed Winnipeg yesterday, plunging 28,000 homes into darkness as 90+ km/h winds and thousands of lightning strikes tore through the city. Trees crashed onto power lines, some lines ripped out entirely, and crews are racing to restore power — but expect long waits and possible overnight outages. While most of Brandon is back online, neighborhoods like Charleswood, Transcona, and Silver Heights still face major blackouts. One resident narrowly escaped injury when a tree limb landed on his truck — a stark reminder of the storm’s fury. Stay away from downed lines and call 911 if you see them.
