Weather: Rain still expected, but mainly to south of Ottawa

Article content

Environment Canada still forecasts plenty of rain in the Capital region, but they’re no longer mentioning “remnants” of Hurricane Beryl from Jamaica in the area.

Instead, a “weather statement” is looking for 10-20 mm of rain picking up around noon Wednesday, with a risk of thunderstorms in the afternoon.

Wednesday’s high is expected to be 24 C, feeling like 31 when the humidex calculation is factored in.

They’re predicting showers and perhaps another T-storm through the evening.

Thursday’s forecast is for more showers with five to 10 mm of rain and a possible thunderstorm. The high is expected to be a pleasant 23 C.

There’s a 40-per-cent chance of showers Thursday evening with a low of 19 C.

The rain should hopefully end Friday and through the weekend with forecasts of cloudy skies.
