More storms may come to southern Quebec, says Environment Canada.

A lot of rain fell on Saturday, over 100 millimeters, in some areas of Montreal and Quebec.

A city official said that the drainage system could not handle so much rain.

The official said that water came out of the ground and the drainage system is maintained regularly.

Environment Canada is warning that it may rain a lot again.

Some streets and homes were flooded in Montreal, said a fire chief.

Many people called for help and some were rescued from their cars.

A storm caused flooding and power outages in Montreal.

About 4,400 people did not have power on Sunday morning.

Power should be back on for 3,000 people by Sunday afternoon.

A resident said that the main street was like a swimming pool.

He will have to talk to his insurance company on Monday.

He hopes his insurance company will not give him a hard time.

The water came from the ground, not from pipes, he said.

He was able to save his son's tuxedo from the water.

His house has flooded four times in nine years.

He is waiting for the next flood, he said.
