Ottawa is officially experiencing its wettest summer in recorded HISTORY‼️😳☔️🇨🇦

July 2026 became Ottawa’s rainiest month in more than 150 years of weather records, with roughly 260 mm of rain, breaking the previous July record of 250.2 mm set in 1899. 

The Canada Day storm alone brought more than 140 mm to some areas, with over 6,000 residents reporting flooded basements.

The rain hasn’t stopped in August either. Ottawa has already recorded 82.9 mm this month, including another 23.5 mm on Monday, which flooded roads and resulted in at least 10 new basement flooding reports in the west end, with additional flooding reported elsewhere.

As of today, August 12, Ottawa has another 30% chance of showers with a risk of an afternoon thunderstorm.  With 21 days still remaining in meteorological summer, the rainfall total could climb even higher.

Provincial disaster recovery assistance has also been approved for eligible Ottawa residents impacted by the flooding.

What a summer it’s been for Ottawa… 🌧️😳🇨🇦
