Rain falling over Windsor, Ontario, is expected to taper off ahead of the annual Ford Fireworks display, according to a report by Dustin Coffman published June 22, 2026. The precipitation will move eastward, leaving clearing skies for the evening event over the Detroit River.
Weather System Moving East
The rain system that brought wet conditions to Windsor will shift east, allowing skies to clear in time for the fireworks. The Ford Fireworks, a major summer event, draw thousands of spectators to both the Canadian and U.S. shores of the Detroit River.
Residents and visitors can expect improving conditions as the evening progresses, with the rain ending before the show begins. The forecast calls for partly cloudy skies and mild temperatures by show time.
Event Details and Safety
The Ford Fireworks are scheduled for June 22, 2026, lighting up the sky over the Detroit River. Authorities remind attendees to plan for wet grounds and to follow safety guidelines. No drones are permitted near the event site, as Toronto police have recently charged individuals for flying devices at FIFA sites, and similar restrictions apply.
Spectators are encouraged to arrive early and use public transportation. The event is a highlight of the summer season, drawing crowds from Windsor and Detroit.
