Toronto has shattered records for the wettest summer season after a weekend of intense rain and windy weather.
Geoff Coulson, warning preparedness meteorologist with Environment Canada, told CP24 on Monday that a record-breaking 128.3 millimetres of rain fell at Toronto Pearson International Airport on Saturday alone.
He went on to say that this June, July, and August are the “wettest” they’ve “ever had” at the airport. “The track wasn’t all that long about 5.2 kilometres long and about 230 wide at its widest point, but some of its damage was fairly significant,” Coulson said. “Structural damage to the roofs damage of some buildings, tree damage in some areas, as well as some empty rail cars that were tipped over. So a pretty significant event.”
