Environment and Climate Change Canada has advised that while mild temperatures may initially limit blowing snow, conditions will deteriorate as moderate snowfall rates combine with strong winds. These factors are expected to create poor visibility from Sunday night into Monday morning.
The heaviest snowfall is anticipated to taper off Sunday night, but flurries may persist through Monday. Rapidly accumulating snow could lead to hazardous travel, with sudden reductions in visibility during periods of heavy snow. Drivers are urged to adjust to changing road conditions.
A snowfall warning indicates the expectation of significant snow, and people are encouraged to take precautions and monitor updates.
