Southvale Drive east of Hanna Rd — The South Bayview Bulldog

Southvale Drive was re-opened about 10 p.m. Saturday night as crews dismembered and removed a large tree branch blocking the busy street. A severe storm dumped dozens of mm of rain during a fierce afternoon downpour. Tree-rich Midtown once again saw many fallen branches. Wires fell on Soudan Ave at Forman Ave and Sutherland near McRae.. There was “major flooding” at the underpass at Bayview Ave. and Nesbitt Drive. Dozens of outdoor events were suddenly overwhelmed by rain. Owners of antique vehicles at Wheels on the Danforth tried to enclose them as strong winds practically knocked people off their feet.
