Extremely hot and humid daytime highs reached the low 30s and feel-like values ​​were in the low 40s for parts of the country. With high humidity and moisture in the atmosphere, conditions were favorable for heavy to torrential rain and damaging wind gusts of over 100 km/h. The storms came in many rounds. The first cluster came in the morning, moving over the central Great Lakes, the Bruce Peninsula and the northern country. While the second cluster or line of storms extended from Lake Huron to Georgian Bay, affecting the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) and the cottage during the evening hours. Weather Network meteorologist Mark Robinson was on the shores of Lake Huron to document the impact. Winds are around 20-30 km/h in the core south of Kincardine. @weathernetwork #onstorm pic.twitter.com/9oe664pC8r — Mark Robinson (@StormhunterTWN) August 3, 2022 Here it comes!
