July 10 update: Storm remnants bring rainfall warnings in Ontario, Quebec
A since-downgraded hurricane that claimed several lives and left a wake of destruction in its path is forecast to strike parts of Canada this week as a tropical storm.
Then-hurricane Beryl wreaked havoc in parts of the Caribbean, Mexico and Texas. It was downgraded from a Category 1 hurricane to a post-tropical cyclone Tuesday morning.
Now classified as a weakened tropical depression, it's expected to head northeast from Texas, eventually reaching parts of Canada.
Here’s where Environment Canada says Beryl’s impact is forecast to be felt.
As of Tuesday, Beryl is set to reach Ontario and Quebec on Wednesday and Thursday, with rain and a risk of thunderstorms in the forecast, according to Environment Canada.
Areas in eastern Ontario, including Toronto and the GTA, are under a special weather warning. Environment Canada warns that while it is still difficult to pinpoint the exact track of the system, rainfall amounts could surpass 50 millimetres in some locations, with “torrential downpours” possible at times.
