Warnings

4:07 AM EST Tuesday 20 February 2018
Rainfall warning in effect for:

• Guelph - Erin - Southern Wellington County
• Kitchener - Cambridge - Region of Waterloo
• Mount Forest - Arthur - Northern Wellington County

Rain, heavy at times continues. The frozen ground has a reduced ability to absorb this rainfall.

Major rainfall event continues until Wednesday morning.

Several rounds of rain will continue today and tonight. Total rainfall amounts from Monday night through Wednesday will be in the 50 to 75 mm range.

This wet, record mild spell is attributed to a series of low pressure systems moving along a warm front draped across the lower Great Lakes. A cold front will arrive Wednesday, bringing an end to the rain.

Localized flooding in low-lying areas is possible. If visibility is reduced while driving, slow down, watch for tail lights ahead and be prepared to stop.

Rainfall warnings are issued when significant rainfall is expected.
