Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: On the ropes: Yesterday's storm turned downtown streets hemmed in by tall buildings into windtunnels - with shotgun blasts of sleet thrown in for good measure - that forced people to clutch ropes at Bay and Front Sts. to avoid being blown off their feet by the savage winds that gusted up to 70 kmh. At the CN Tower for the first time since it opened; all fans were on full power to keep the huge inflatable white doughnut around the observation deck from deflating.
