Stay safe and prepared, Ottawa! Environment Canada has issued a special weather statement for our region.
Freezing rain is expected to begin overnight and continue into Wednesday, March 11. Ice buildup on trees and power lines can cause branches to snap and lead to potential power outages. Our crews are on standby and ready to respond safely and as quickly as possible should the lights go out.
How you can prepare:
- Charge your devices: Ensure your cell phones and power banks are fully charged.
- Check your emergency kit: Make sure you have flashlights, fresh batteries, and a 72-hour supply of water and non-perishable food.
- Stay connected: Visit our Outage Centre to lean how you can stay informed and for real-time updates
