[9:31 AM EDT - Is it an alert? No! It's an emergency!]
Another heat emergency in as many days.. wow, this is going to be quite interesting. We've also got a warning to curb our water consumption because water levels are low from lack of rainfall. Funny, lack of water and we're sitting next to a lake for cryin out loud! Okay, I'm not keen on drinking the lake water either but still..

I was mildly surprised to discover that Toronto does, in fact, draw its water supply from Lake Ontario.

But reservoir volumes and filtration plant capacity is limited. It can't take everyone in TO spending a half hour with the hose running to get those two or three pesky leaves off the driveway. :P
