Snow squalls are expected. Under the snow squall bands, visibility will be significantly reduced due to the heavy snow combined with blowing snow, and snow will quickly accumulate. Snow squalls expected tonight. What: Very poor visibility in heavy snow and blowing snow. Local snowfall accumulations up to 10 cm. When: Tonight. Additional information: A snow squall off Lake Huron is currently affecting areas east of Sarnia. This snow squall will eventually move north out of the area later tonight. Strong northwesterly winds gusting up to 70 km/h will continue to cause significant blowing snow until the snow squall moves out of the area. ### Travel will likely be extremely hazardous. Visibility will likely be suddenly reduced to near zero at times. Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. To report severe weather, send an email to ONstorm@ec.gc.ca or post reports on X using #ONStorm.
