Snowstorm on the way.

A disturbance approaching from the Northern Plains States is expected to spread an area of snow into Northeastern Ontario beginning Sunday and continuing Sunday night.

Latest indications suggest total snowfall amounts of near 15 cm are quite possible by Monday morning.

More snow is expected on Monday.

Hazardous winter driving conditions from accumulating snow on untreated roads and low visibility in areas of heavier snow are expected with this weather system. Motorists should be prepared to change travel plans accordingly.

Snowfall warnings will likely be issued later tonight or Sunday as this event draws nearer.
