Environment Canada has issued a severe thunderstorm watch for most of southwestern Ontario, including Oxford County.
OXFORD COUNTY - Environment Canada has issued a severe thunderstorm watch for most of southwestern Ontario, including Oxford County.
Conditions are favourable for the development of dangerous thunderstorms that may be capable of producing damaging wind gusts, large hail and heavy rain. A line of severe thunderstorms may move in from Lower Michigan and enter Southwestern Ontario this evening.
The main threat is damaging wind gusts to 110 km/h which may cause power outages. Torrential downpours are likely, and large hail is possible.
Very strong wind gusts can damage buildings, down trees and blow large vehicles off the road. Remember, severe thunderstorms can produce tornadoes. Heavy downpours are likely to cause flash floods and water pooling on roads. Lightning kills and injures Canadians every year.
