Winter is not over yet and Environment Canada says there is a chance of freezing rain for Toronto on Saturday night.

The city remains under a special weather statement because of that risk.

Environment Canada says the icy precipitation, however, is expected to be followed by 15 to 25 millimetres of rain and gusty winds on Sunday.

The forecast calls for rain starting on Saturday evening or after midnight.

The federal weather agency says the precipitation could fall briefly as freezing rain in areas that remain below freezing but will fall as rain once temperatures rise above zero.

It is expected to taper off late Sunday morning or early Sunday afternoon.

Ponding of water on streets, particularly those with blocked storm drains and in low lying areas, is possible.

On Sunday, winds from the southwest could gust 70 to 80 km/h and are expected to continue for much of the day.
