Bright Lights and Loud Booms in Parry Sound

A rare February thunder and lightning storm has hit Parry Sound tonight as we are under a rainfall warning.

Rain and thunderstorms will continue to affect the regions tonight.

The rainfall will be heavy at times, and total rainfall amounts between 30 and 50 mm are likely in most locales. Higher amounts will be locally possible, due to thunderstorm activity.

The rain will come to an end early Saturday morning with the passing of a cold front.

Localized flooding in low-lying areas is possible. Don’t approach washouts near rivers, creeks and culverts.

Rainfall warnings are issued when significant rainfall is expected.
