The chief meteorologist at Environment Canada says it's almost as if normal weather doesn't happen any more. Dave Phillips says it seems the climate is wobbling all over the place, especially in a year in which there was thunder at the North Pole and seven straight months of freeze in southern Canada. Phillips says if people thought 2019 was packed with extremes, wait until next year.
Phillips's top Canadian weather story for 2019 is the April flood on the Ottawa River that drenched or threatened more than six-thousand homes. The river broke water level records by 30 centimetres.
