A warm and wet July in Thunder Bay
If you're thinking July was a wet month in Thunder Bay you are correct. Our meteorologist Bill Laidlaw says we got 20 millimetres more rain than what we normally get for the month. He says however, that a huge amount of that rain came in a 4 day period which saw half of the months precipitation fall in one day. Laidlaw says in fact we were unique in all of northwestern Ontario for the amount of precipitation we received. Meantime the temperature for the month was about a degree and a half above normal.
