Rain deluge offers relief but wells may stay short
Rural residents who rely on dug wells may still need to replenish supplies after a week of rain drenched Thunder Bay and nearby communities. Experts note quick runoff limits ground absorption, while few households use 1,000 litres daily per home. Environment Canada records 60 millimetres of rain in Thunder Bay, with June normally receiving 80 to 85 millimetres.
