Share

Environment Canada has issued a winter weather travel advisory for much of southwestern Ontario, including London-Middlesex, Grey-Bruce, Huron-Perth, and Oxford-Brant.

“Lots of snow coming in for your Thursday, arriving to Lambton County anytime after 8:30 a.m. and slowly pushing into Middlesex County by about 10 a.m.-11 a.m.,” said CTV News London Meteorologist Julie Atchison.

“We’re expecting that snowfall to continue through the early part of the day. It’s a fast moving system,” said Atchison. “The bulk of the snow will fall before 3 p.m. As you head home for the day, expect some strong gusty winds.”

Atchison said snowfall amounts further south of London, like St. Thomas and Port Stanley, will be much less.

Midwestern Ontario will experience heavier snowfall, anywhere from 5-10 cm, according to Atchison.
