Environment Canada is warning of a potential storm in Milton and the surrounding area!
“Conditions are favourable for the development of severe thunderstorms that may be capable of producing strong wind gusts and large hail,” it says in a Severe Thunderstorm Watch posting.
Winds could gust up to 110 km/h with hail the size of ping pong balls.
“Thunderstorms are expected to develop early this afternoon with the potential for quick intensification as they progress eastward. The risk for severe thunderstorms should diminish by late afternoon. Large hail can damage property and cause injury. Strong wind gusts can toss loose objects, damage weak buildings, break branches off trees and overturn large vehicles. Lightning kills and injures Canadians every year. Remember, when thunder roars, go indoors!”
