In the month of July, we have seen a fair amount of whacky weather in Canada’s Capital, some of which has been very nerve-wracking for our listeners to monitor. With some of Wednesday’s nasty systems boasting the potential of producing a tornado, a weather alert could be enough to save you from tragedy. That is, if you get one.

Gardening expert Carson Arthur is here to tackle your gardening-related texts and emails. And finally, is sitting in a traffic gridlock bad for your health?
