Special warning predicts gusty, colder Sunday afternoon

Strong winds are expected today. Strong southwest wind gusts of 70 to 80 km/h will develop this morning ahead of a sharp cold front. Occasional gusts to 90 km/h are possible, especially in exposed areas near the Great Lakes. These winds will shift to the northwest with the passage of a sharp cold front late this afternoon. Northwest wind gusts of 70 to 80 km/h are expected this evening. Winds are expected to diminish late this evening and overnight. The strong winds may cause some tree damage and isolated power outages, because many trees are still in partial to full leaf. Environment Canada
