Original Toronto Star caption: Caravan Braves Lake Shore Blvd. Flood; A line of trucks westbound on Lake Shore Blvd. near Dufferin St. plows through floods after today's pounding rainstorm. The second heavy storm in five days flooded hundreds of basements and disrupted power in about 20 east-end blocks in the Queen-Greenwood area. Toronto apparently took the worst drenching in the Metro area-over an inch in 12 hours. Flooding temporarily blocked Lake Shore Blvd. at the CNE; the Queensway near Park Lawn Rd. in Etobicoke and 16th St. in New Toronto.
