Storm Fiona: Nearly all of Prince Edward Island without power after powerful winds, heavy rain

Prince Edward Island was slammed by post-tropical storm Fiona on Saturday, leaving nearly everyone without power and thousands of people without a way to communicate.
Powerful winds uprooted trees and snapped power poles as the storm passed through. About 95 per cent of the island was without power as of Saturday afternoon and cell service is intermittent.
The province’s premier says the storm may be the worst the island has ever seen.
Global’s Silas Brown has on the destruction from post-tropical storm Fiona.

My heart goes out to all of the people impacted by this storm. People need to begin to prepare for an unstable world. I recommend an amazing passage from the New Message ~ Facing Planetary Instability that can be read online for free. "You are witnessing chaotic events in the world. Imagine yourself being in those events, surviving those events. Let them teach you what you would have to do, how you would have to prepare and think, what would be the wisest course of action. Let these terrible and unsettling events instruct you. Do not simply avoid them, or be horrified by them, or indulge in your own fears and fantasies. Instead, allow them to instruct you, for they are preparing you for the new world-a new world disorder, a new world instability."

Prayers up to everyone on the Island !!!

[@newyork2021]

Thank you for keeping us updated on the storm. I haven't been to the island in years; however, it used to be my yearly summer vacation spot - and I have an Aunt that still lives in Charlottetown, P.E.I. Prayers up !!!

[@Jimmythefish577]

Yes, because prayers work huh? People who say ‘sending prayers’ do so only to make themselves feel better because they think they’re doing something to help when In fact they’re actually doing zero to help. 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@albertafarmer8638]

So sad but we are living in the E N D times, the 7year Tribulation with the world leader (Antichrist) is right around the corner, that's GOD'S judgement upon all unbelievers! There is hope - get saved and be rapture ready: accept JESUS CHRIST as your Lord and Savior today!!! Please study biblical end times prophecy; listen to Dr. Roger Liebi and Dr. Ron Rhodes on end times chronology. Greetings from Alberta

PEI shouldn't be a province. They can't support or govern themselves at all. Premier just says maybe later when people ask for help.

Then Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples: "The teachers of the law and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat. So you must be careful to do everything they tell you. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach. They tie up heavy cumbersome loads and put them on other people’s shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to lift a finger to move them. Everything they do is done for people to see: They make their phylacteries wide and the tassels on their garments long; they love the place of honor at banquets and the most important seats in the synagogues; they love to be greeted with respect in the marketplaces and to be called ‘Rabbi’ by others. But you are not to be called ‘Rabbi,’ for you have one Teacher, and you are all brothers. And do not call anyone on earth ‘father,’ for you have one Father, and he is in heaven. Nor are you to be called instructors, for you have one Instructor, the Messiah. The greatest among you will be your servant. For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted". YOU SHALL NOT MAKE FOR YOURSELF AN IMAGE in the form of anything, in Heaven above or in the Earth beneath, or in the waters below. You shall not bow down to them, or worship them, for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents, up to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me, and keep my commandments. If my people who are called by my name, humble themselves and pray, AND TURN FROM THEIR WICKED WAYS, I will hear from Heaven, will forgive their sins, and will heal their land. AND WHEN YOU PRAY DO NOT BE LIKE THE HYPOCRITES, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners, to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. BUT WHEN YOU PRAY, GO INTO YOUR ROOM, close the door, and pray to your Father who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need, before you ask him. This, then, is how you should pray: Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins. "Matthew 5-7 NIV Bible Gateway", we can use google search. These are the teachings, The Righteousness of our Lord Jesus Christ our God. REPENT, and start doing what is right. If you abide my teachings, you are really my disciples; then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free. Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in Truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. GOD IS SPIRIT, so his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in Truth. In the New Heaven and the New Earth, only Righteousness dwells. May the Spirit of our Lord Jesus Christ our God be with you all.

I also confirmed that I solved the problem of global warming. If anyone thinks that I can't fix this problem to the end, I don't mind. From what I have researched and analyzed The violence is increasing than it has been every year. If the UN approves me to solve the global warming problem, I will quickly fix the problem. I have enough information to prove to everyone that there is a solution and a solution to the problem of global warming to return to normal.
