Environment Canada has issued a special weather statement, calling for very strong winds tomorrow afternoon into Sunday night.

A low pressure system developing over Colorado is forecast to track northeast across the Great Lakes and Central Ontario tonight and Sunday.

With most trees still in partial to full leaf, these winds may be strong enough to cause some tree damage in exposed areas Sunday, leading to the potential for isolated power outages.

The wind is expected to slowly die down Sunday night.
