As we get a late blast of winter a great reminder of how to find road conditions in between our forecasts:
The Ministry Of Transportation has a fantastic website for conditions on Provincial highways and is updated continually.
The link is here: http://www.mto.gov.on.ca/english/ontario-511/winter-road-conditions.shtml
On that page there is also a link to an interactive & highly detailed map which includes weather cameras, traffic flow and closures in real time: https://511on.ca/#:Alerts
For county roads in our area the OPP are solely responsible for determining if roads are to be closed due to weather and the information on County roads in Huron, Lambton, Perth, Middlesex and Bruce Counties can be found on the OPP West Region Twitter feed: https://twitter.com/OPP_COMM_WR
As always, visibility and road conditions can change rapidly with shifting winds and under snow squalls. Plan your trip in advance and leave yourself lots of extra time to get to your destination safely.
