Snow Squalls Possible to Start the Week
Environment Canada has issued the first snow squall watch of the season, warning that travel may become hazardous with visibility dropping suddenly to near zero. The watch covers Sarnia-Lambton, Perth County, Huron County, Chatham-Kent, Southern Bruce County, and Elgin County.
These areas could see 15-30 centimetres of lake effect snow by Tuesday. Environment Canada stated,
“Lake effect snow off Lake Huron is expected to begin impacting Lambton County tonight (Sunday) and possibly locations near the eastern shore of Lake Huron on Monday morning. Snow squalls may extend towards Lake Erie as well. Northerly winds are expected to become northwesterly late Monday into early Tuesday. As a result, lake effect snow will further impact areas to the east and southeast of Lake Huron.”
Drivers are advised to be cautious and prepared for rapidly worsening travel conditions.
