Environment Canada has lifted a previously issued special weather statement for Waterloo Region and southern Wellington County, warning of both rain and thunderstorms throughout Friday evening. 

The weather agency had warned of scattered thunderstorms and rain, becoming heavy at times, with local rainfall rates up to 20 millimetres per hour. Total local rainfall amounts of 30 to 50 millimetres were expected in slow moving thunderstorms. 

That special weather statement was lifted shortly before 10:00 p.m. on Friday evening.
