A developing Colorado low will make its way towards Ontario today, ushering in a wet, windy but mild day. Periods of rain have begun across all of Southern Ontario and as of 8 oclock this morning, some localities over the western sections have already reported 10 to 20 mm of rain. Trick or treaters may have a rather wet time during the evening hours especially in a swath extending from Southwestern Ontario northeast through Georgian Bay and the Nickel Belt. Further south, across the Niagara, Greater Toronto and Eastern Ontario regions, the rain may become more sporadic in the afternoon, however during the evening, steadier rain is likely to set in. General rainfall amounts of 20 to 40 millimetres are expected across much of Southern Ontario by the time the rain tapers off Friday. Higher amounts of 40 to 60 mm are forecast for the Bruce Peninsula and areas east of Georgian Bay where a rainfall warning is in effect. In addition, brisk winds are expected to accompany this system, with gusts to 60 or 70 km/h likely. Friday morning, winds are expected to strengthen and gusts to 80 to 90 km/h will be possible for areas near the shores of the Great Lakes.
