Today's Weather Trivia:
2008: During a severe thunderstorm, lightning struck and killed a man in a
Toronto park. He had taken shelter under a huge maple tree at Christie Pitts
ballpark. The deadly bolt also shook nearby homes. The storm drenched the
city with some 52 mm of rain within an hour. During the same period,
Environment Canada detected 430 lightning strikes.
