Heavy rains have left cars stranded in the streets of Toronto and some 300,000 customers without power as a wicked summer storm poured a month’s worth of rain on some parts of the city on Monday evening.
The rain started arriving ahead of the supper hour, which caused severe flooding, major public transit delays and power outages across the city.
Pedestrians sought shelter where they could as they waited out the weather.
For drivers and commuters, the voyage home was just as problematic. The rain made it hard to see, while the pools of water made it hard to drive and in some cases drivers were unable to move.
Environment Canada has put Toronto under a severe thunderstorm warning due to a “cluster” of storms that are making their way towards the city from the Brampton and Mississauga areas.
