Isolated Severe Thunderstorm Possible This Afternoon & Evening (Wed, June 22, 2022)
/TODAY (Wed, June 22, 2022): Isolated severe thunderstorms are possible this afternoon and evening across parts of our region with a specific emphasis on eastern Ontario. By “isolated”, we mean that almost everyone highlighted in yellow will not see a severe thunderstorm today. The strongest storms could briefly produce damaging wind gusts, hail, and frequent lightning. There is the potential for quite a bit of flooding, especially in isolated parts of eastern Ontario, perhaps near Bancroft or Pembroke regions. If storms develop in the GTA, flooding is also the main risk. The overall tornado potential is quite marginal (low) but there is a bit of a more pronounced risk once again in areas like Pembroke, Petawawa, Renfrew and locations that border Quebec. We’ve highlighted this low tornado risk with the dotted region and outlined in blue dashes.
As always, if we see any rotation on radar for any of these events, we will do our best to notify all those who have our free app Instant Weather and who subscribe to our premium Text Message Alerts as well as through Facebook, Twitter, etc.
