COULD GET A LITTLE NASTY WEATHER WISE!!

Batten down the hatches, !
Things could get a little breezy. 💨

Environment and Climate Change Canada - Weather has issued a special weather statement for most of Southern Ontario. We could see strong winds today with gusts of 70 to 90 km/h possible.

Be prepared for severe weather. Make sure your floaties are tied down, outdoor umbrellas and furniture is secure, and keep an eye on the trees. There are still a lot of loose branches up there from the ice storm.

Charge your devices and have extra batteries ready too in case of power outages.
