Town of Essex wants to know why some storm warnings come too late to be useful or even after the storm.

Mayor Sherry Bondy : “It’s been happening for a couple years where we have a storm go through our town, and it seems like the Environment Canada alerts pop up on our phone half an hour , 45 minutes after the fact.” Forecasters do a “spin-up” which entails looking at model data, observation and satellite data and lightning.

Forecasters want to be sure that it is warranted when they issue it.

That increase to 35 per cent in 2022 . Severe weather warnings are often associated with warm, humid conditions, which started Saturday with a regional heat warning. Next week’s weather features sun, rain and humidity. Saturday is expected reach 32C with a 30 per cent chance of showers and likely thunder and lightening, with a humidex of 42 . Sunday and Monay are expected to be clear with temperatures hitting the mid-30s C and showers returning on Tuesday , which is expected to be partly cloudy. [email protected].
