Lightning strikes cause power failure
More than 4,700 Digby County residents were left without power early Tuesday afternoon after lightning struck a transmission structure on Lansdowne Road.
Affected areas included Digby, Digby Neck and Islands, Little River, Mount Pleasant, Marshalltown, Conway, Brighton, South Range and Smith’s Cove.
“It hit the structure in such a way it caused the poles to split apart and caused a fire and it completely destroyed the transmission structure,” said Nova Scotia Power spokesperson Stacey Pineau.
Four crews were sent out to the location and made a temporary repair, which allowed restoration of service within three hours.
The outage occurred from 1:40 p.m. until 4:35 p.m., Pineau said.
“We will need crews to come up and put in a new transmission structure either today or tomorrow,” she said.
There were four or five lightning strikes reported in the Digby area Tuesday.
