Yesterday, Network Operations at UCIS noted:

Due to the bad weather conditions we are experiencing network outages due to power bumps/outages. Technicians will ensure network connectivity has been restored to all areas when weather conditions improve.

Luckily, it seems that we have been spared any major power outages here in POLAN. I am still away in Ottawa for reading week, and will be back at work on Wednesday, March 3rd.
