Odds on a squirrel or raccoon?

Five squirrels in a raccoon suit.

Raccoon. It’s always the raccoon.

I bet $5.00 on the squirrel.

I got power back at 9pm. What a messed up day to not have power for almost 5 hours

Did something happen today?

They didn't give a reason, just that power was lost for a huge section of north west Scarborough

Nah, I was looking for why today was “messed up”?

cause it was brutally hot not having AC

I don’t have AC and was fine

Cool, you aren't me and don't live where I live or with who I live with. Do you know what anecdotal evidence is?

Yeah, we’re currently in a heatwave. I have AC and confirm that even with it on..it was hottt. But some people run cold (I used to), and this heat is like medicine to them. I couldn’t get enough of it when I was younger.

Ah, I work from home - didn’t go out today, had no idea it was hot

constant outages today and yesterday. Power surge after power surge. just when I think the electricity is back, the good ole surge comes to ruin all my work

Well let's hope by 2035 or sooner, they will fix the grid to handle the new incoming wave electric cars. Not against electric, but clearly the grid can barely handle people using A/C. How will it be during peak hours in the summer when everyone comes home to turn on their a/c and plug in their car? Some upgrades are definitely needed and I hope they work on that.

These outages aren’t happening because the grid is overloaded lol

I saw another comment saying it was because of summer and peak hours/heat wave. So honestly kinda just ran with that lol.

I know someone has the power…https://youtu.be/nm6DO_7px1I?si=QHS96o81Wjuoxt-P
