Issued at 3.41 p.m. ET: Rainfall, combined with melting snow, is expected. The frozen ground has a reduced ability to absorb this rainfall. Rain will continue into this evening with total rainfall amounts of 40 to 60 mm expected by midnight. Since the ground is frozen, the winter rainfall warning criterion of 25 mm in 24 hours is being met. For information concerning flooding, please consult your local conservation authority or Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry district office. The rain will change over to freezing rain in most beginning later this evening as temperatures dip to near the zero degree mark.
Freezing rain this evening
Freezing rain warnings are in effect for areas just north and east of Toronto, and may be extended into areas from Toronto and west tonight as needed. Brisk west winds gusting to 60 km/h will herald the end of the precipitation Sunday morning.
