Wicked weather wanes

The Kenora area has so far been relatively unscathed by a huge storm system that is moving over central Canada.

Rain, high winds and even some snow has been attached to the system.

Geoff Coulson is a severe weather specialist for Environment Canada and says things should start to improve later today.

The storm system has caused a number of power outages in and around Thunder Bay, and even forced the closure of the Trans-Canada Highway between Nipigon and
Schreiber for a short time last night.

No power outages have been reported in the Kenora area so far.
