London, Ontario is bracing for a shift in weather as rain and possible thunderstorms move in after a warm start to Friday. CTVNewsLondon.ca meteorologist Gary Archibald has the latest forecast for southwestern Ontario, detailing the incoming precipitation and potential storm activity.
Warm Start Gives Way to Storms
The day began with unseasonably warm temperatures across the region, but conditions are expected to deteriorate as a weather system approaches. Residents should prepare for rain throughout the day, with the possibility of thunderstorms developing by the afternoon.
Forecast Details
According to Archibald, the warm air mass will collide with a cold front, triggering instability in the atmosphere. This could lead to brief but intense downpours, gusty winds, and lightning. The risk of severe weather remains low, but localized flooding in low-lying areas is possible.
Temperatures will drop after the front passes, with cooler conditions expected for the weekend. Commuters are advised to exercise caution on roads, especially during peak thunderstorm periods.
