"The saturated or frozen ground will have little ability to absorb this rainfall. Heavy downpours may cause flash floods and water pooling on roads. Localized flooding in low-lying areas is possible."
"Environment Canada issued a special weather statement for Toronto on Monday afternoon, calling for 20 to 40 millimetres of rain. The rain is expected to begin Tuesday night and continue through Wednesday. Higher amounts of rain are possible in areas that receive thunderstorms."
Environment Canada issued a special weather statement for Toronto warning of significant rainfall expected from Tuesday night through Wednesday. The forecast calls for 20 to 40 millimetres of rain, with higher amounts possible in areas experiencing thunderstorms. A series of low-pressure systems moving through southern Ontario will drive this precipitation. Saturated or frozen ground conditions will limit water absorption, increasing flood risk. Heavy downpours may cause flash flooding and water pooling on roads, with localized flooding likely in low-lying areas. Environment Canada may issue rainfall warnings as the weather systems approach.
