We're in for a wet and windy weekend in Niagara.

Environment Canada is predicting up to 50 milimetres of heavy rain, starting tonight and continuing through to Sunday morning.

There's also a risk of freezing rain for areas away from the Lake Erie shoreline tomorrow night.

Those living close to the Lake Erie shoreline could be in for wind gusts up to 90 kilometres per hour Sunday morning.

This warm winter storm could affect traffic throughout Southern Ontario this weekend.

A special weather statement remains in effect.
