Another of those brief recurring power outages in Midtown

by The Bulldog • September 24, 2017

Good morning!
Good morning!

Power was out briefly Sunday morning in Midtown, the third such early morning outage in recent months. Power was off by 6.55 a.m. and returned shortly before 7 a.m.

@TorontoHydro power out in midtown. What's the word?
