Toronto storm Mar. 2 2007 dog walking

Walking your dog is not going to be easy today. People are being asked to stay indoors, city-wide, due to downed power lines. Some streets in our neighbourhood, Queen W., are blocked while hydro crews work. I heard from a neighbour that there are telephone poles on fire in north Toronto.

Wear boots, there are great pools of water everywhere, watch for downed lines and if you see one, go the other way, with the all the water around you can get electrocuted! Don't stay out long, you won't want to anyway.

Our place is almost sound completely sound proof so we didn't hear the storm at all, but I sympathize with anyone whose dog was upset during the storm: about storm phobic dogs
