Snow squall watch in effect for:
- Wawa – Pukaskwa Park
- White River – Dubreuilville
- Searchmont – Montreal River Harbour – Batchawana Bay
- Agawa – Lake Superior Park
Lake effect snow squalls expected Wednesday.
Southerly winds over the relatively warm waters of Lake Superior are expected to produce flurries and local snow squalls on Wednesday. The squalls could start as early as Wednesday morning and are expected to continue through Wednesday night.
Local snowfall amounts of 10 to 15 cm are possible on Wednesday, however areas closer to Lake Superior could see locally higher amounts of 15 to 25 cm. Additional amounts of 5 to 15 cm are possible Wednesday night into Thursday morning.
Local blowing snow reducing visibilities will also be a concern.
Local snow squalls are forecast to taper off when the winds shift to the northwest on Thursday.
Travel may be hazardous due to sudden changes in the weather. Surfaces such as highways, roads, walkways and parking lots may become difficult to navigate due to accumulating snow.
Snow squall watches are issued when conditions are favourable for the formation of bands of snow that could produce intense accumulating snow or near zero visibilities.
