Severe overnight thunderstorm brings significant amounts of rain to GTA, forces closure of Gardiner

Parts of the Gardiner Expressway were closed for flooding and thousands of homes and businesses across the Greater Toronto Area lost power because of a severe thunderstorm overnight.

Early Thursday morning, a westbound section of the Gardiner was closed from the Lake Shore ramp west of South Kingsway to Park Lawn because of a large amount of water covering multiple lanes.
