Snowfall, with total amounts of 15 to 20 cm is expected.
Snow heavy at times associated with a low tracking across far northern Ontario will continue to affect the region this evening. Snowfall amounts of 5 to 10 cm have fallen so far and another 5 to 10 cm is expected before the snow tapers off overnight.
Be prepared to adjust your driving with changing road 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. Public Safety Canada encourages everyone to make an emergency plan and get an emergency kit with drinking water, food, medicine, a first-aid kit and a flashlight.
