Severe Storms Threaten Ontario and Quebec with Flooding and Hail
Severe thunderstorms are expected to impact parts of Ontario and Quebec, bringing risks of strong wind gusts, heavy rain, and large hail. The storms are anticipated to cause localized flooding, particularly in areas like Bancroft, London, and the Niagara region, which have already experienced significant rainfall recently. The weather conditions are driven by a cold front moving into the region, with thunderstorms likely to organize into a line during the afternoon. Atmospheric moisture will contribute to the intensity of the storms, although upper-level smoke from western fires may suppress their severity.
