Over 11,000 Nova Scotia Power customers are without power after high winds and rain hit the Port Hawkesbury and Cape Breton areas of the province Saturday evening.
Saturday night, the hardest hit areas according to the Nova Scotia Power outage map, were between Antigonish and Harve Boucher with nearly 1,700 in the dark. In the Margaree Valley, close to 900 were without power.
Many in those areas have now been restored with those up in Cape Breton, especially in Eskssoni, are now the ones who are experiencing the most outages.
The utility says the estimated restoration time at this point, is Sunday afternoon.
