For anyone trying to contact or visit relatives in the Eastern Ontario area reaching as far afield as Peterborough down through to Kingston and further eastwards (and many other areas I'm sure) there is a major ice storm that has happened.

We have inches of ice everywhere and on everything and many roads impassable and major power outages. Hydro One is advising numbers of days to be able to react to the hardest hit areas. Phone lines are down as well. Cell coverage seems for the most part to be up so far.

A lot of people will not have a pleasant Christmas this year

Spare a thought for these people
