Uyarılar, Pointe Yelle

rainfall warning in effect Heavy rain on tap. What: Up to 40 millimetres of rain is expected. When: From this evening into overnight Wednesday night. Where: From the Ottawa Valley towards the Laurentians and Lanaudière. Additional information: An intense low pressure system will bring rain to southern Quebec. As the ground is frozen and has a reduced ability to absorb moisture, significant amounts of water could accumulate on roads and in other areas. A significant rise in the flow and level of some rivers is also quite possible. After that, temperatures are expected to drop overnight Wednesday night possibly leading to flash freezing of ponded water. Roads may become slippery, causing difficult travel conditions and transportation delays on Thursday morning. Plummetting temperatures will also come with flurries which, in addition to reducing visibilities, may leave a few centimetres of snow locally. Consider changing any non-essential travel plans for this period. ### Rainfall warnings are issued when significant rainfall is expected.
