Possible Windstorm Sunday

Significant weather notification for British Columbia.

Gusty winds will sweep through B.C. on Sunday (Oct 9th) and Monday (Oct 10th) due to a cold front. Wind damage to drought-weakened trees may cause isolated power outages. Gusty winds with little to no precipitation will elevate fire behavior conditions.

We may dodge this warning, or not.  Strong outflow winds are expected and we might be hit with the Copper Canyon winds.  We are all usually prepared for this type of weather event, but our Stage 4 drought and EXTREME Fire Hazard rating could cause additional problems.

If you see a tree on the line and it’s sparking, call 911 immediately.  TIVFD

Yoga on Thursdays - Cancelled until 2023

Hello fellow islanders, 

Unfortunately, I am going to cancel yoga on Thursdays for the rest of this year.  Hopefully, Karen is back on island and will resume her classes soon.

Thank You

Firstly, I wish to again thank all of those people who jumped into action and came to my rescue when I crashed and burned on my e-bike out front of the Chemainus ferry terminal yesterday afternoon. That in includes the ferry staff. My wife was able to come and pick me up and take me home. By that time I could barely move and was in a lot of pain.  Immediately applied DMSO every 15 minutes until I fell asleep. When I awoke the pain was gone and there was no swelling................ by the end of coffee I was moving about on my own and recovering swiftly. The wounds, scrapes are also mending well. 

Regards,

David
