The Toronto and Region Conservation Authority issued a flood outlook for Ajax, Ontario, on March 12, 2026, due to a weather system moving through the area. Officials are expecting between 20 and 40 mm of rain to fall, which could lead to minor flooding and rising water levels in local watersheds.
While this is a low-level safety message, the Town of Ajax is urging residents to be careful near any bodies of water. People are advised to stay away from rivers, shorelines, and trails that are close to the water until the weather clears.
The heavy rainfall might cause water to pool on roads and in low-lying areas like underpasses or near storm drains. Drivers and pedestrians should use extra caution when travelling around the community while the rain continues.
This statement is in effect until Thursday night on March 12, 2026. Local officials will continue to monitor the situation and will provide updates if the risk of flooding increases.
