Pop-up showers, thunderstorms Tuesday evening, clearing overnight

CTV London Meteorologist Julie Atchison has your forecast details for Tuesday evening.

A few pop-up showers and thunderstorms are making their way into southern Ontario.

“This is not widespread, but daytime heating combined with a bit of instability and we get a few pop-up showers,” explained CTV London Meteorologist Julie Atchison. “As we head into the evening most of that action will dissipate … As we push past 7 p.m., the chance for showers rapidly drops off.”

It’ll be cooler across the region Tuesday evening, with the temperature dipping to around 12 degrees. However, we’ll be heating right back up come Wednesday.

“We’re going to heat up temperature wise into the upper 20s across most of the region,” said Atchison. “It will feel like the low 30s.”

Gusty winds are also expected out of the southwest, but lots of sunshine is in store.
