Environment Canada has posted a severe thunderstorm watch for most of the day across southern Quebec south and east of Montreal. This area will be the focus for strong storms that could produce up to 50mm (2 inches) of rain in a very short period of time. This could result in flash flooding as well as a continued threat of prolonged flooding in the Richelieu River Valley and Lake Champlain basin.
