Snow squalls off Lake Ontario possible on Tuesday. What: Significantly reduced visibility in heavy snow and local blowing snow. Local snowfall amounts near 10 cm. When: Beginning Tuesday morning and ending Tuesday evening. Additional information: Lake effect snow squalls may impact the region beginning Tuesday morning. The main concern will be low visibilities due the intense snowfall rates and localized blowing snow. The snow squalls will clear the area Tuesday evening. ### Travel may be hazardous. Visibility may be suddenly reduced to near zero at times. Roads and walkways may be difficult to navigate due to accumulating snow. 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.
