Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) had issued a severe thunderstorm warning for much of southwestern Quebec and the Montreal area. 

However, the warning was removed at around 9:10 p.m. 

Earlier in the day, the ECCC said conditions were ripe for the development of severe storms "capable of producing strong gusts, large hail and heavy rain."

A tornado warning was also issued shortly before 2 p.m. for the Lachute area but that also was lifted. 

Some of the regions that were affected by the thunderstorm warning included:

  • Longueuil - Varennes 
  • Chateauguay - La Prairie 
  • Valleyfield-Beauharnois

Severe thunderstorm watches are in effect for much of southern Quebec. (ECCC)

The rain in Montreal is forecast to last until about Thursday at 9 a.m.

There are also weather warnings for rain and wind alerts for regions across Quebec.
