Wet weather is on its way for our region.
Environment Canada has issued a special weather statement for possible significant rain Friday into Saturday.
Meterologist Stephen Hatt says a low pressure system is approaching our province from the Great Lakes.
“There is a high probability of getting over 25 millimetres of rain in a 24-hour period,” says Hatt.
“And there’s a chance it could be 30.”
Hatt expects rain will begin late in the afternoon Friday, mixed with strong winds and mild temperatures.
He says there is a risk of flooding in areas prone to run-off or ground that can’t absorb water.
