Since Saturday, the area has been under a Snow Squall Warning, a Special Weather Statement and a Blowing Snow Advisory. Now, a Snow Squall Warning is in place for Exeter, Goderich, Bluewater, and Southern Huron County. Snow squalls are expected to weaken later today.
An additional 5 to 10 cm of snow may fall in some areas, with reduced visibility caused by snow and blowing snow. These conditions are expected to ease later this morning or early this afternoon as lake effect snow from Lake Huron and Georgian Bay loses strength. Winds will also calm down during the morning, but blowing snow may still occur near Lake Huron and Georgian Bay.
Snow squalls can cause sudden changes in weather, from clear skies to heavy snow, within a short distance. If visibility drops while driving, slow down, watch for vehicles ahead, and be ready to stop. Adjust your driving to match changing road conditions.
