I barely missed Fiona, was in Bermuda on the Tuesday before it hit

I was in Ontario when it did hit, then went home to Halifax the next day. We got lucky: our power was back already, internet works, and there was no damage to our apartment or any of our stuff (including the car that I left parked on the street under a tree). Looking around the city and the number of downed trees, it could have been a whole lot worse, and I know of quite a few people that are still without power. Halifax also got off pretty easy compared to some other places. Apparently some towns are looking at 2+ weeks before power comes back because there simply aren't enough replacement power poles in the affected provinces and we need to ship some extra ones in.
