Floodwater has receded across Toronto the Yonge subway is back in operation. As reported below, flooding at Lawrence station caused considerable disruption and forced the TTC to cancel service overnight while they cleaned up the station. Ward 25 Jaye Robinson has told the CBC that at some point in yesterday evening’s rain she and family members had to escape from their car by struggling through windows. Presumably this means the car would not run in the depth of water but they could walk through it nonetheless. No one was in jeopardy of drowning. The forecast for merely a millimeter of rain today (Friday, October 17, 2014).
