If Toronto gets atmospheric rivers, as we do, particularly in some years more than others, do they get as much as / more/ less than we do? I lived there for a year, and encountered wind, freezing rain, intense cold, and snow, of course) strangely mild days like the January thaw, and the atmospheric rivers, but not often did I seldom see the cool/mild, deep grey, continuously rainy days that Vancouver gets for sequences of several days or more> In August there were afternoons with short but intense downpours of a continental or humid temperate climate. I'm not so sure it has the continuous heavy rains Vancouver gets, especially in the late fall, but they do get wild, sudden swings of weather that we, mercifully, do not.
