Lois write me that she went to the Wood Islands Ferry last night and the docks are now an island and large rocks have washed up on the road. Below is a picture of Murray River that I took in July. You can just barely see the bridge at the lower left hand side and get a sense of how far above the river that the bridge is supposed to be.
George, Vanessa's husband, sent me the picture below of the current water level at the same bridge. This storm is causing a lot of damage across the Island.
The Confederation Bridge was closed for 28 hours straight over Tuesday and part of Wednesday but the weather advisory has finally been lifted, with gusts still up to 80 kmh, according to The Guardian. Seems to be a very wet fall and early winter there, but no snow to speak of yet.
