By Steve Kupferman • Photos by Christopher Drost

Every weekday’s end, Extra, Extra collects just about everything you ought to care about or ought not miss.

• Things got pretty windy in Toronto yesterday, with gusts reportedly in excess of 100 kilometres per hour. Torontoist photographer Christopher Drost captured the above photo of rough waters on Lake Ontario, by Billy Bishop Airport.
• There is a rumour that Apple is interested in taking over the Strollery store at Yonge and Bloor Streets, but the whole thing is apparently completely unfounded. The Grid tells us why.
• When did Toronto’s first cat arrive on these shores? Someone thinks they’ve found an answer.
• And with today’s debate on the composition of the TTC board still raging, Matt Elliott reminds us how we got here.
