FORECAST DISCUSSION
Scattered pop-up thunderstorms are expected across Southern Ontario on Sunday, mainly during the afternoon and early evening hours.
Some of these storms have the potential to become marginally severe, with the primary threat being nickel-sized hail, wind gusts up to 90 km/h, and the risk of flash flooding due to the slow-moving nature of these storms.
The most likely area for severe weather is along a corridor stretching from London through Kitchener/Waterloo and into Central Ontario.
While the overall tornado risk is low, there is a possibility of funnel clouds forming with these storms. In rare cases, these funnel clouds may develop into landspout tornadoes.
