Environment Canada has issued a winter weather travel advisory for the entire greater Kawarthas region for Wednesday (March 20).
The winter weather travel advisory is in effect for Peterborough County, Kawartha Lakes, Northumberland County, Haliburton County, and Hastings Highlands.
A sharp cold front is expected to move south through the area late Wednesday morning or afternoon. Narrow bands of heavy flurries combined with gusty northwest winds associated with the front will lead to a relatively short but sudden drop in visibility.
Total accumulations of 2 to 4 cm of snow are expected.
Visibility may be suddenly reduced at times in heavy snow. There may be a significant impact on rush hour traffic in urban areas. Be prepared to adjust your driving with changing road conditions.
The front and associated bands of heavy snow are expected to clear the region later in the afternoon or early evening.
