Severe thunderstorm watch in effect for:

Simcoe - Delhi - Norfolk

Conditions are favourable for the development of severe thunderstorms that may be capable of producing strong wind gusts and heavy rain.

There is potential for isolated thunderstorms to briefly become severe this evening. Torrential downpours and damaging winds are the main threats. An isolated tornado cannot be completely ruled out.

Fast moving water across a road can sweep a vehicle away. Strong wind gusts can toss loose objects, damage weak buildings, break branches off trees and overturn large vehicles. Remember, severe thunderstorms can produce tornadoes. Stay indoors when a thunderstorm strikes. There isn't a place outside that is safe during a thunderstorm.

Emergency Management Ontario recommends that you take cover immediately, if threatening weather approaches.

Environment Canada meteorologists will update alerts as required, so stay tuned to your local media or Weatheradio. Email reports of severe weather to storm.ontario@ec.gc.ca or tweet with the hashtag #ONStorm.
