Environment Canada has issued a special weather statement for the Ottawa area, warning of rain and strong winds on Sunday night and Monday, with 15 to 30 millimetres of rain expected to fall over the next few days.

According to the statement, a “rapidly intensifying disturbance brewing in Kansas is setting its sights on Ontario,” which will track toward Lake Michigan Sunday night and cross Northeastern Ontario on Monday.

Rain, which will be heavy at times, will arrive in Southwestern Ontario on Sunday evening and quickly spread to other regions overnight. Rainfall amounts of 15 to 30 mm are expected before it tapers off on Monday.

As the storm crosses the province Monday, the statement continues, strong winds will strengthen to 50, gusting to 70 or 80 km/h out of the southwest, and could reach 90 km/h in some areas.

Winds of this magnitude may bring down some limbs or trees and cause sporadic power outages, and wind warnings may be required.

The agency advises the public to monitor forecasts and warnings, which may be extended as the storm develops.
