Cleanup continues in southeastern Ontario after region hit by severe storm

Thousands in eastern Ontario were without power after a storm hit over the holiday weekend. People in parts of southeastern Ontario, along Lake Ontario, continue to dig out after a storm with blowing snow and up to 100 km/h wind gusts walloped much of the region. Main roads were passable by Sunday in Prince Edward County, with secondary streets opening on Monday. Multiple vehicles became stranded as snow drifts covered. Hydro One said road closures, broken hydro poles and tree branches were some of the biggest obstacles in getting power restored to certain areas.
