— Heavy rainfall in southwestern Ontario has left scores of flooded streets and basements as some areas were hit with more than 200 millimetres of rain in less than 24 hours. The nearby community of LaSalle was the hardest hit, with 125 millimetres of rain Monday and another 160 millimetres on Tuesday, Alsen said. Windsor Mayor Drew Dilkens said the city had received 175 calls of roads flooded across the city and advised people only to drive if necessary. The Windsor General Hospital’s Metropolitan Campus also had some flooding, Dilkens said, adding a mobile emergency room might be brought in. All ambulances are also being directed to the other hospital campus.
