There's more than just heat on the way for Windsor-Essex and Chatham-Kent. Environment Canada has issued a severe thunderstorm warning alongside the heat warning that has been in place for much of the week. According to the agency, a line of severe thunderstorms is located from LaSalle to east of Arkwood and is nearly stationary. "Heavy downpours can cause flash floods and water pooling on roads," Environment Canada warns. Temperatures have soared to 34 C in Windsor-Essex this week, as the region is under a "heat dome."
