Toronto Gets Pummeled with Monster Rain
Tuesday, 09 July 2013 | by Pat's Picks

Toronto was hit with a record amount of rain yesterday, says the Sun, making it the wettest day the city has seen in 50 years. Meteorologists blamed slow-moving thunderstorms for the deluge which caused massive flooding and led to “harrowing scenes” around the city. People abandoned their cars on the road as the rain kept pelting down and firefighters were forced to rescue dozens of passengers from stranded cars and trains.
