Environment Canada issues winter weather travel advisory for Saturday evening
Environment Canada has issued a winter weather travel advisory for Saturday evening.
Bursts of heavy and blowing snow may cause low visibility.
Heavier snowfall developed across our region, expecting to affect portions of southwestern Ontario into early Sunday.
Locally heavy snowfall in these counties with total accumulations of 15 to 50 cm is expected by Monday evening.
Lake effect snow squalls will continue through at least Monday, and likely into Tuesday as strong westerly winds bring much cooler air to the region.
