Storm to bring up to 60 millimetres of rain to parts of Ontario, Quebec
A weather system moving into Ontario and Quebec could bring heavy rainfall through much of Tuesday with thunderstorms also possible.
Canada's provinces of Ontario and Quebec are bracing for significant rainfall due to an approaching storm. Eastern Ontario may experience up to 60 millimetres of rain, with particular areas like Kingston, Peterborough, Picton, Parry Sound, and Haliburton at risk. Environment Canada predicts a low pressure system will move east, bringing showers and thunderstorms. The storm is anticipated to clear from west to east this afternoon or early evening.
In Quebec, a nearly stationary warm front associated with a low pressure system moving south of the border is causing special weather statements and yellow rainfall warnings in the southern parts of the province. Areas such as the Bois-Francs and Eastern Townships could see 30 to 50 millimetres of rain between Tuesday morning and late Wednesday night or early Thursday morning.
Yellow warnings cover the Montreal, Vaudreauil, and Monteregie areas, with the possibility of rainfall reaching 40 to 60 millimetres. Water pooling on roads and in low-lying areas is expected, and visibility may be reduced at times.
