Soggy Saturday continues, up to 20 mm of more rain

Warm but wet weather expected Saturday before it cools down Sunday and Monday.

You won’t want to put away your sweaters just yet as a cold front is pushing its way through the region bringing with it more showers and potentially thunderstorms as well.

By Sunday those showers could be changing to snow.

A special weather statement from Environment Canada remains in place for much of Simcoe County on Saturday.

The national weather centre is warning of 10 to 20 millimetres of rain into the evening.

Environment Canada says the additional rain could have significant impacts on parts of the region as showers have been plentiful over the last few days.

The ground is getting to the point where it can’t absorb this much water, nearing saturation.

The national weather centre is alerting drivers to flooded roads and not to drive on them. It also recommends avoiding low-lying areas and to be mindful of water pooling on roads.

Flooding continues to wreak havoc on several communities including parts of Muskoka and Minden Hills.
