Heavy rain, dense fog warnings in place for GTA: Environment Canada | CBC News
"Environment Canada issued a yellow advisory for fog with 'near zero visibility' in some areas, especially near the shores of Lake Ontario."
"The ground, already near saturation, has a limited capacity to absorb this rainfall, leading to potential flooding on roads."
"Water will likely pool on roads and in low-lying areas, creating hazardous driving conditions for residents."
"The Toronto and Region Conservation Authority extended a flood outlook, warning that flooding may be possible with widespread rain in a short amount of time."
Environment Canada has issued warnings for the Greater Toronto Area regarding dense fog, heavy rainfall, and potential thunderstorms. A yellow advisory for fog indicates near zero visibility, particularly near Lake Ontario. Rainfall could reach up to 20 millimeters, exacerbating flooding risks on roads. The ground's saturation limits its ability to absorb additional rain, leading to pooling on roads and in low-lying areas. The Toronto and Region Conservation Authority has extended a flood outlook, cautioning about dangerous conditions in shorelines and streams due to increased water flow.
