Environment Canada has issued a winter weather travel advisory for the southern greater Kawarthas region on Tuesday night (November 15) for what it calls “the first significant snowfall of the season.”
The winter weather travel advisory is in effect for southern Peterborough County, southern Kawartha Lakes, and Northumberland County.
An approaching low pressure system will make its way over Lake Erie on Tuesday night, bringing snow for much of southern Ontario.
The snow will begin Tuesday evening, tapering to light snow by Wednesday morning.
Snowfall amounts of near 5 cm are expected, although some areas may receive up to 10 cm.
Be prepared to adjust your driving with changing road conditions. Slow down driving in slippery conditions. Watch for taillights ahead and maintain a safe following distance. Visibility may be suddenly reduced at times in heavy snow.
