CP24’s Bill Coulter has an update on a special weather statement and dangerous conditions for parts of southwestern Ontario.
Environment Canada says snow is set to arrive today and while accumulations may not be “significant,” brief bursts of heavier snow, coupled with high winds, could make for poor visibility on GTA roads.
“Lake effect snow may affect portions of the Greater Toronto Area today and tonight,” the national weather agency said in a special weather statement on its website.
“Snowfall accumulations are not expected to be significant, but visibility may be reduced in brief bursts of heavier snow and local blowing snow. Hazardous travel conditions are possible as a result.”
Toronto could begin to see snow squalls later Thursday morning and into the afternoon. Environment Canada says the city could see about two centimetres of accumulation by late afternoon.
Wind gusts of between 40 km/h and 70 km/h are possible this morning but will diminish this afternoon.
Snow squalls may continue into the evening, with as much as two centimetres falling overnight, Environment Canada said.
Toronto will see a high of 2 C today, dropping to -2 C overnight.
The temperature will dip to a high of -0 C on Friday but will feel closer to -8 with the wind chill in the morning. Flurries are expected to continue on Friday.
There will likely be a short break from the precipitation on Saturday, which is expected to see a high of 2 C. On Sunday, Toronto will see a high of 4 C along with rain or snow.
