As of this morning, Toronto set a record for the wettest city in Canada. WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! I’m so thrilled. According to Enviroment Canada, over a 2 month period, Toronto has set a record for the most rain, beating a 30 year old record.
On average, Toronto records 792.7 mm of precipitation each year. But with 623.6 mm as of yesterday afternoon, even with August predicted to be dryer than normal, we could eclipse the previous full-year record of 971.3 mm, which was set in 1977.

Yes, we are soggy. We have had some lovely days, don’t get me wrong. I’ve enjoyed them. But the rain is getting to be a bit much. We are expected to get more rain today, tomorrow and on the weekend.
I’m building an Ark on the balcony. Anyone wants to reserve a seat, send your payment via Paypal.
In the meantime, I’m trading my tabby stripes in for some nice duck feathers and learning to paddle about in the water.
Stumble it!
