WEATHER ALERT
ENVIRONMENT CANADA
*************************
Special weather statement in effect for:

  • Guelph - Erin - Southern Wellington County
  • Kitchener - Cambridge - Region of Waterloo
  • Mount Forest - Arthur - Northern Wellington County

Potential for some brief heavy snow along a cold front late Sunday. A more widespread snowfall likely Monday and Monday night.

An Arctic cold front will cross Southern Ontario later in the day on Sunday into the evening. It will likely be accompanied by a brief burst of heavier snow with reduced visibilities affecting travel. A coating of a couple of centimetres in a short timeframe is possible in some areas.

On Monday, an approaching Alberta Clipper is expected to deliver the first widespread snowfall to virtually all of Southern Ontario. General snowfall amounts of 5 to 10 centimetres appear likely at this early juncture. Although localized slightly higher amounts are possible, snowfall warnings are not expected (where at least 15 centimetres would have to fall within 12 hours).

Environment Canada will monitor these weather features and update statements accordingly.

Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. To report severe weather, send an email to [email protected] or tweet reports using #ONStorm.
