Can confirm. Our office lost power.hearing that in some cases this spills over all the way to University Ave
There's video!Reports online suggest a crane took out one of the transmission lines at the Portlands.

Yes, Lower Sherbourne was closed south of The Esplanade @ about 4.15 and re-opened when I returned at 5.15. Lots of fire trucks at the Hydro One transformer station when I left, they were packing up when I returned. Several Hydro One trucks still there..Of further note:
Toronto Fire is no longer on scene at either Hydro incident.
Hydro is on scene; so hopefully some progress, but no posted estimated time of full restoration of power as yet.
But apparently about 1/2 of customers are now back online.
Power is back
I was concerned about that, and I made sure not to open it the whole time. It appears everything has stayed well cooled/frozen. I think it probably needs at least 12 hours to get to the danger zone. Even the ice cream I have in the door of the freezer didn't even begin to melt.Hopefully no spoiled food in the fridge/freezer!
Freezer stuff is still good for sure. Milk/yogurt and left overs I had seem good as wellHopefully no spoiled food in the fridge/freezer!
Apparently a ferry crashed into the dock at Queen's Quay this evening. Minor injuries only, but I'm guessing that particular ferry will be taken out of service for some time, and that's going to make the summer weekend travel to and from the Island pretty rough.
UPDATE: It was the Sam McBride that crashed. The City has cancelled all service in the islands direction for the rest of the day. The remaining ferries will be used only to take people back to Toronto from the Islands. No update yet on tomorrow.
