@mattdagley No need for power to be cut to the entire feeder of 5,000+ customers. Outage could be isolated using one of many switches along Oxford St, or a recloser if any were installed. @nspowerinc why does feeder 104H-413 not have any reclosers along the expanse of this very large grid?

Update from Nova Scotia Power: "There is an emergency outage affecting customers in Halifax tonight due to a propane leak. Crews are working with local authorities and shut off power just after 8 o’clock for public safety. Power will be restored as soon as the propane leak has been cleaned up and it is safe to do so."

@mattdagley Terrible to have 5,151 customers on a single feeder (104H-413). Typically a feeder only has 1000-2000 customers. This is one of the most unreliable grids on peninsular Halifax. It’s too large. @nspowerinc why is it so large? What’s being done to improve reliability of 104H-413?

@nspowerinc still waiting for a response on this. The Oxford street distribution line is out once again
Cape Breton Mesonet@CBmesonet

@mattdagley This particular distribution line (Oxford Street) has serious reliability problems. By far the worst in peninsular Halifax. @nspowerinc what is being done to address this? Why are there no reclosers on this line?

@Pat_wx @ThierryGooseBC An important note: the Maritime provinces saw a well above normal mean maximum temps, but the air was so exceptionally dry all month that nights were some of the coldest in more than a century. Very rare for the modern climate.

August 2025 was slightly warmer than normal overall in Canada. The warmest anomalies were observed in the Yukon, NWT, and Prairies. Meanwhile a few cold anomalies stand out in SW Ontario and parts of Nunavut. #wxtwitter

@NSWeatherCentre Yes, that’s accurate. The station is located inland a few km’s, and the sea breeze takes longer to get there. The ECCC station at Ingonish Beach reached 36.2°C just before the sea breeze came in.

It is ridiculously hot out in Nova Scotia. Most areas have surpassed 30°C in what is likely one of the warmest days across the province on average... possibly ever. The station in MacKay Siding has recorded a record value of 38.1°C, just 0.2°C below the record of 38.3°C. #NSStorm
