Environment Canada has lifted a severe thunderstorm warning that it issued earlier Thursday for communities in the Winchester area southeast of Ottawa.

The weather alerts were yellow, the lowest and most common level on Environment Canada’s three-colour scale.

A severe thunderstorm watch remains in place for communities along the St. Lawrence River, from Prescott in the east to well past Toronto in the west.
