London area forecast for Jan. 4, 2025 [Video]

If you’ve tucked your shovel away since the last snowfall, it’s time to haul It back out. Snowfall accumulation could exceed 20 centimeters in London by Sunday morning.

“This is the reinforcement of this arctic airmass, and north westerlies associated with this massive spin of pressure,” said CTV Meteorologist Gary Archibald. “The lake effect engine just continues to pile the snow where we expect to see it.”

It could feel as cold as minus seventeen overnight, “the overnight temperatures just reinforcing this cold air that’s driving the snow across the region,” said Archibald. “Of course, [snow squall] warnings are in place for the great city of London, Parkhill, eastern Middlesex County.”

Some parts of the region could see as much as thirty centimeters of snow before the system runs out of steam.

“Very strong gusting winds reducing visibility, of course that means travel plans could be slowed down,” warned Archibald.
