(Saint John Energy crews removing branches on Douglas Avenue – photo submitted)
Police are cautioning motorists to be a little more vigilant on the way home this afternoon.
The wind and rain combined with the falling leaves are making for some slick driving conditions.
R-C-M-P say the possiblity of hydroplaning is high with the water on the road — and — around the city some storm drains have become clogged with leaves causing mini-lakes to build up.
In addition — Saint John Energy crews have been busy removing branches from power lines but no serious outages have been reported so far — meantime — NB Power is reporting some outages in the St Stephen – Fredericton – and – Woodstock areas affecting almost seven thousand customers.
