ENVIRONMENT CANADA
**************************
Snowfall warning in effect for:

  • Little Abitibi - Kesagami Lake
  • Timmins - Cochrane - Iroquois Falls
  • Kapuskasing - Hearst - Smooth Rock Falls

Snow heavy at times is expected today.

Snow will continue near Lake Superior and spread eastward towards the Quebec border later this morning. Snowfall amounts in the 15 to 20 cm range are expected. The snow will taper off from west to east later this afternoon over north of Superior, and through tonight over northeastern Ontario.

This snowfall is due to a developing low pressure system that will track south of the region.

Prepare for quickly changing and deteriorating travel conditions. Visibility may be suddenly reduced at times in heavy snow. Surfaces such as highways, roads, walkways and parking lots may become difficult to navigate due to accumulating snow.

Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. To report severe weather, send an email to [email protected] or tweet reports using #ONStorm.
