Be cautious if you plan to travel south tomorrow (Sunday) as some heavy snow is expected. Perhaps plan to leave early.
In fact, Environment Canada has issued a special weather statement for:
- South River - Burk's Falls
- Huntsville - Baysville
- Deep River - Whitney - Eastern Algonquin Park
- Bracebridge - Gravenhurst
- Port Carling - Port Severn
- Town of Parry Sound - Rosseau - Killbear Park
The first significant snowfall for the season is expected on Sunday
Snow, at times heavy, is expected to affect regions east of Georgian Bay and toward Algonquin Park beginning Sunday afternoon and continuing into the night.
In general, snowfall amounts of 5 to 10 cm are expected; however, local amounts up to 15 cm are possible over higher terrain. Snowfall will taper off to a few flurries Sunday overnight.
There is still some uncertainty in the snowfall amounts as snow could be mixed with rain and reduce the snowfall accumulation.
Motorists planning to travel in these regions should exercise caution and driving may be treacherous at times.
