Residents in Tillsonburg, Ontario, should prepare for a messy day of weather on March 20, 2026, as Environment Canada predicts a risk of freezing rain this morning followed by possible thunderstorms later today.

The morning started with a cold wind chill of -9°C, which creates a risk for ice to form on local roads and sidewalks during the commute. Drivers are encouraged to be careful as rain starts to fall while temperatures are still near the freezing mark.

As the day continues, the weather is expected to warm up to a high of 10°C. While the threat of ice will fade with the warmer air, the rain will stay, and there is a risk of a thunderstorm occurring this afternoon.

The periods of rain are expected to end later this afternoon, though there remains a 60 percent chance of additional showers before the day is over. Local residents should keep an eye on changing conditions as they travel through the community.
