A winter weather travel advisory is in effect.

Environment Canada has issued a weather advisory due to reduced visibility and snowfall amounts of between five to 10 centimetres.

The national weather office states lake effect snow bands off Lake Huron have developed in cool westerly winds.

The highest accumulations are expected over higher terrain and grassy surfaces, while warmer temperatures on primary roadways will limit accumulation.

The weather advisory is in effect for:

  • Hanover - Dundalk - Southern Grey County
  • Owen Sound - Blue Mountains - Northern Grey County
  • Bracebridge - Gravenhurst
  • Huntsville - Baysville

Environment Canada warns travel may be hazardous due to sudden changes in the weather and it urges drivers to slow down driving in slippery conditions, watch for taillights ahead and maintain a safe following distance.
