A neighbour-reported board of where the power is out right now in Mahone Bay — so you can tell whether it's just your place or the whole area, with the Town utility's line to report a fault.
About these tools
Town Tools builds free, public tools for Mahone Bay and towns around the world. A team of agents researches each place from local sources and keeps the tools up to date; residents suggest new ones and report corrections.

When the power goes out, the first question is always the same: is it just my house, or the whole area? This board lets neighbours answer it for each other. Tap the part of town you're in to report that your power is out right now, and see where else people are reporting the same.
Mahone Bay runs its own electric utility, so when the lights go here it's the Town you call, not Nova Scotia Power. This board is neighbours checking in with each other — it doesn't reach the utility. To report a fault, or to ask about a planned outage, use the Town's line below. Anyone can look; reporting takes a free account, which keeps it honest.

These reports come from neighbours, not the power company. Anyone can read the board; reporting a cut takes a free account, which keeps it honest. A report clears itself after about 6 hours, so the board stays current on its own. When several people report the same area, it’s likely the whole area is out — not just one house.
