rainfall warning in effect:
Rainfall with embedded torrential downpours expected.

Hazards:
Rainfall totals of 40 to 60 mm, with locally higher amounts possible.
Torrential downpours giving rainfall rates of 20 to 40 mm per hour at times.

Timing:
This morning to Thursday morning. The heaviest rain will occur today into this evening.

Discussion:
Periods of heavy rainfall associated with the remnants of Hurricane Beryl will move into southern Ontario this morning. These types of weather systems can give very high rainfall rates in torrential downpours.

Rainfall amounts will likely be highly variable across the region, and some areas may receive in excess of 60 mm. Rain will taper to scattered showers from west to east tonight through early Thursday morning.

For information concerning flooding, please consult your local Conservation Authority or Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry office. Visit Ontario for the latest details.

Heavy downpours can cause flash floods and water pooling on roads. Localized flooding in low-lying areas is possible. #YQG #OnStorm #PGAF ...read more
