Sunday’s powerful windstorm resulted in fallen trees, massive power outages, and a slew of wacky weather across Metro Vancouver.

It also blew a porta-potty out of place and into traffic on the Granville Street Bridge.

In a video captured and shared to social media, vehicles can be seen manoeuvring around the porta-potty after it got stuck in the left lane.

Photos of the blockage were shared online as well.

Yesterday’s storm brought powerful gusts of up to 90 km/h with periods of hail, wet snow, and sunshine.

According to BC Hydro, power has been restored to 174,000 of the 180,000 customers impacted by the storm across BC.

Environment Canada said the windstorm was part of an “intense” Pacific cold front that moved across the south coast on Sunday.
