UPDATE: Storms Leave Thousands Without Power In Midwestern Ontario

(As of 11:40pm)

Environment Canada has ended all severe thunderstorm warnings for midwestern Ontario, however a watch remains in effect.

The national weather service has had much of the region under several statements, warning for severe thunderstorms and possible tornados.

Meanwhile, Hydro crews are still working as multiple power outages are affecting thousands across Bruce, Grey and Wellington counties and northern parts of Huron.

Outages are also affecting customers of local utilities as the feed from Hydro One is interrupted due to weather related issues such as downed trees and strong winds.

Restoration times vary from 11:30pm to 1pm Monday afternoon.

Southern Bruce and northern Huron counties appear to have faced the brunt of the major storm system that passed through the midwestern Ontario region.
