We could use some rain. Instead, it went around us. Ottawa was hammered, including thunder and lightning. You can see there were over a thousand strikes, according to lightningmaps.org.

This would have been promising, but not a drop of rain.



There were some power outages.

There are heat warnings on both sides of the border. The red indicates where. Climate Change is a horrible thing. These extreme temperatures are killing people.

We're just missing the remnants of Tropical Storm Barry
