Winter Travel Advisory issued for Kawartha Lakes this afternoon

KAWARTHA LAKES-Environment Canada has issued a Winter Travel Advisory and Special Weather Statement for the Kawartha Lakes and Peterborough.

Significant snowfall is possible Monday into Tuesday morning.

Snow, at times heavy, will develop Monday afternoon and persist into Tuesday morning. Total snowfall amounts of 10 to 15 cm are possible by Tuesday morning.

Travel may become hazardous due to reduced visibilities in heavy snow and blowing snow. There may be an impact on the commute both Monday evening and Tuesday morning.

A snowfall warning may be required as the system approaches.

This snow is associated with an Alberta Clipper tracking over Southern Ontario on Monday.

A travel advisory has also been issued for this afternoon for Kawartha Lakes.

A band of heavy snow from Georgian Bay is extending over areas directly east of Lake Simcoe this afternoon. Sudden reduced visibilities in heavy snow and blowing snow are expected in these areas. Snowfall amounts up to 5 cm are also possible.

Travel may become hazardous as roads could become snow covered and icy.
