Fall could be ushered in with some high winds and cool temperatures.
Environment Canada has issued a wind warning for North Bay, Powassan, Mattawa, West Nipissing and French River.
Strong winds that may cause damage are expected. Strong southwesterly winds gusting near 90 km/h are expected this afternoon and early this evening, with higher wind gusts possible in thunderstorms. These strong winds are associated with a cold front that will track over the area late this afternoon and early this evening.
Slightly weaker northwest winds gusting to 60 or 70 km/h are also expected this evening after the cold front passes. Winds will then diminish overnight.
Damage to buildings, such as to roof shingles and windows, may occur. Loose objects may be tossed by the wind and cause injury or damage.
Wind warnings are issued when there is a significant risk of damaging winds.
