Heavy Snow – Risk of Freezing Rain (Manitouwadge – Hornepayne)

Heavy snow today with risk of freezing rain.

Hazards:
Snowfall accumulations near 15 cm.
Reduced visibility at times in heavy snow.

Timing:
Tapering off this afternoon.

Discussion:
Snow, heavy at times, may become mixed with or transition to ice pellets or freezing rain this morning. The mixed precipitation or snow will taper to periods of light snow or flurries this afternoon.

Rapidly accumulating snow could make travel difficult over some locations. Visibility may be suddenly reduced at times in heavy snow. Surfaces such as highways, roads, walkways and parking lots may become difficult to navigate due to accumulating snow.
