Ontario weather: Snow squall warnings remain in effect [Video]

Snow squall warnings in southern Ontario remain in effect Friday, with as much as 60 centimetres expected by Saturday evening in some areas.

The lake effect snow will be felt most by areas along Lake Huron, including Kincardine, Hanover, Saugeen Shores, southern Bruce County, Dundalk, and southern Grey County.

Environment Canada says the heaviest periods of snowfall in those areas are expected tonight as stationary snow squall bands develop.

“Snow squalls cause weather conditions to vary considerably; changes from clear skies to heavy snow within just a few kilometres are common. Travel is expected to be hazardous due to reduced visibility. Road closures are possible,” the national weather service said in their warning.

Weather warnings are also still in place for Barrie, Collingwood, Midland, northern York Region, Newmarket, and northern Durham Region, but those areas are only expected to get five to 10 centimetres of accumulation.
