Environment Canada Ends Winter Storm Watch For Southern Ontario

The Canadian Press, 28 Dec, 2015 12:13 PM
    TORONTO — Environment Canada has issued winter storm and freezing rain warnings for large swaths of Ontario and southern Quebec after an unseasonably warm December.
     
    The agency says an intense low pressure system that originated in Texas is expected to roll into the Windsor area Monday afternoon, bringing freezing rain, ice pellets and strong winds before changing to rain Monday night.
     
    The storm will hit Sault Ste. Marie hard with upwards of 35 centimetres of snow Monday night.
     
    It says the system will move across the province where it will turn into snow in eastern Ontario and southern Quebec where it could also dump between 20 to 35 centimetres of snow by Tuesday afternoon.
     
    Environment Canada says ice could build up on roads and walkways by as much as five centimetres in southwestern Ontario.
     
    The agency says driving conditions will be treacherous and visibility will be near zero at times.
