1. Kaise Hua Yeh Sab?
Yeh sab achanak shuru hua Wednesday, September 2, 2026 ko, jab ek behad powerful thunderstorm ne poore region ko apni laped me le liya. Environment Canada ne pehle hi severe weather alert jaari kiya tha, lekin tufan ummeed se kahin zyada khatarnak nikla. [1, 2, 3, 4]
- Torrential Rain & Hail: Kuch hi ghanton me shahar ke kai hisson me 100 se 110 millimeters tak baarish record ki gayi. Yeh poore ek mahine ki baarish ke barabar thi. Baarish ke sath-sath golf ball ke size ke olay (hailstones) gire aur tezi se chalne wali hawaon ne sab tabaah kar diya. [1, 2, 5, 6, 7]
- Rinse and Repeat Storms: Weather experts ke mutabik, ek ke baad ek kai tufani badal (thunderstorms) Toronto ke upar aakar barashte chale gaye, jisse drainage system poori tarah fail ho gaya. [8, 9]
2. Kahan Hua Sabse Zyada Nuksan?
Tufan ka asar pure Greater Toronto Area par tha, lekin kuch khaas ilake poori tarah paani me doob gaye:
- Don Valley Parkway (DVP): Toronto ki sabse busy highways me se ek, DVP, poori tarah dariya ban gayi kyunki paas ki Don River ka paani kinaron ko tod kar road par aa gaya. Kai log apni gaadiyon ke sath highway par hi phans gaye. [4, 10, 11]
- North York: Is area me hawaon aur olo (hail) ka kehr sabse zyada tha. Yahan ke mashhoor Rogers Stadium ki chhat aur structure ko kaafi nuksan pahuncha. [2, 6]
- Downtown and Residential Streets: Shahar ke mashhoor Yonge Street aur The Beaches jaise ilakon me 3 fit se zyada paani sarak par bhar gaya. [12, 13]
- Vaughan: Toronto ke north me base Vaughan ilake me flooded roads ke sath-sath ek bada sinkhole (gaddha) ban gaya, jisse wahan rasta band karna pada. [4, 6]
3. Tufan Ke Baad Ke Halat
Is tabaahi ne shahar ko kuch hi ghanton me thap (paralyze) kar diya: [2]
- 1,500 Emergency Calls: Toronto Fire Services ke paas unki history ka second-highest emergency calls ka load aaya. Firefighters ne lift me phanse, paani me doobi gaadiyon me phanse aur tooti hui buildings ke logo ko rescue kiya.
- Massive Power Outages: Tufan ki wajah se trees aur bijli ke khambe gir gaye. Toronto Hydro ke mutabik, peak par lagbhag 170,000 logon ki bijli gul ho gayi thi.
- Hospital me Paani: East York ke Michael Garron Hospital ke emergency department me bhi flood ka paani ghus gaya, halanki hospital staff ne mushkil halat me bhi kaam jaari rakkha.
- Transit Shutdown: Subway lines band karni padi, Toronto Island ferry services ko rok diya gaya, aur Pearson Airport par dozens flights cancel ya delay hui. [2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 10, 13, 14]
Final Thoughts & Mayor’s Statement
Toronto ki Mayor Olivia Chow ne emergency operations centre ko active karte hue shahar ke workers aur responders ka shukriya ada kiya hai. Unhone yeh bhi saaf kiya ki Climate Change ki wajah se ab aise achanak aane wale tufan bade khatre ban chuke hain, aur shahar ke infrastructure ko upgrade karna ab bohot zaroori ho gaya hai. [1, 4, 7, 8]
Abhi cleanup ka kaam tezi se chal raha hai aur dheere-dheere bijli aur transport ko restore kiya ja raha hai. [10, 13]
