The severe thunderstorm watch that was issued early Tuesday afternoon for Sarnia-Lambton, Chatham-Kent, and Windsor-Essex has ended.
Environment Canada downgraded the previous watch around 6 p.m. issuing a special weather statement for strong winds in its place.
The national weather agency said the southwest winds will shift to northwest and diminish this evening as a cold front moves through.
Loose objects may be tossed by the wind which can cause injury or damage and more utility outages may occur.
