These pictures are making my head explode. First Calgary floods and now Toronto? Winnipeg, YES, every damn year because the Red River opens into a floodplain, and guess what? Winnipeg is in the middle of that floodplain. But never Calgary or Toronto. Screw you all you global warming deniers.
Monday evening’s record-breaking rainfall continues to wreak havoc on Toronto’s morning commute with subway and GO train delays, road closures, and power outages in the west end of the city Tuesday.
By midnight Pearson airport had officially seen 126 mm, a single-day record for Toronto. The previous single-day record for rainfall was set at 121.4 mm in 1954. The average rainfall for the entire month of July in Toronto is only 74 mm.

Oh, Toronto. My heart breaks to have seen these images the last day. Were I able to live in any city on this planet, it would be Toronto. I deeply adore that city!
Also: Buffalo, which is ninety miles' drive from Toronto but only about forty miles away as the crow flies, saw very little rain yesterday. Strange.
This year is very weird weather wise. I know what you mean about Toronto. Great frickin' city.
And today they're having rolling blackouts, the poor buggers, because the electrical supply is so tenuous now.
Toronto is a great city, but as a West Coast born and raised boy I can't help look at these pictures and think; "Good!"
You are bitter from all the wet and musty smells you live with. I do love the BC fogs.
