Don't forget Wawa, in the precursor of Hurricane Sandy.A beautiful town, they have had floods and terrible damage a few days before Hurricane Sandy.
Smack in the middle of the western boundary of Ontario, it is truly a tragedy for all.

Wawa, Ont., damage from rain may exceed $10M CBC.ca - 19 hours ago
The destruction that heavy rain caused in the northern Ontario town of Wawa is worse than feared, the community's mayor says, after the freak...
The Municipality of Wawa made a Declaration of Emergency late Thursday evening (Oct. 25th) due to heavy rainfall in the area. The Ontario Provincial Police notified the Municipality and travelers on Highway 17 that the highway was closed in both directions near Catfish Creek while Highway 101 east of Wawa had also been closed due to flooding. The Municipality of Wawa determined that Tremblay Flats Road had sustained severe damage and it was closed to all traffic at about 11:00 p.m. last night while Infrastructure Services crews attempted to address the issue. 
All I can offer up, beyond my sympathies, are photos I took on our visit to this most beautiful part of Ontario on June 23rd, 2009.

Yes, my thoughts are with you. I hope that the storm is less than they are predicting. On the other hand it could replenish your wetland as you said it had dried out.
Is that a part of the monster storm, Sandy? Very sad what weather can do when it turns.
It is is a weird sort of way, Olga, in that there was a storm last Thursday and the hurricane pushed the storm across Northern Ontario.
Glad to be high and dry, Red!
Oh Ontario!
Oh Canada!
thanks, Jenn
