The storm will be a combination of and westerly winds, with gusts hitting Kincardine, Goderich, Stratford and Kitchener the hardest.

Environment Canada also warned that the strong winds could cause dangerous driving conditions due to reduced visibility throughout the day.

"Prepare for quickly changing and deteriorating travel conditions. Be prepared to adjust your driving with changing road conditions," it adds.
