Except for kicking up a few waves, bringing some rain and knocking out power for close to 4000 people, Earl turned out to be a non-event for most of the Province.
The humidity had more people talking than anything the track of the storm brought with it.
Saints Rest Beach was closed for safety reasons yesterday morning but re-opened early in the afternoon.
The Fire Department had to re-set several alarms through-out the day due to the humidity but no calls to get water out of basements.
As of 7:30am this morning, NB Power was still working to get six of it’s customers in Passekeag and one in Summerville back on the grid.
Saint John Energy was called to stamp out a hydro pole fire on Rothesay Avenue but all damage has been repaired.
City Police report a very calm evening and the Rothersay Regional Force recovered a pair of stolen leaf blowers. One man will appear in court later to answer to charges.
