Forecasters warned that water would likely form pools on roads and in low-lying areas.
The weather office had earlier warned of severe thunderstorms moving east of the Ontario border with Michigan, but those advisories — as well as a tornado warning — were later cancelled.
A special weather statement remains in place for areas from Windsor to Woodstock, including Chatham-Kent and London, where meteorologists were forecasting up to 50 millimetres of rain.
