Snow squall warning for
Goderich - Bluewater - Southern Huron County continued

Radar continues to show flurries and snow squalls off Lake Huron. Additional local accumulations up to 10 cm are still possible today.

However the squalls are getting less organized and are expected to continue weakening this morning. Snow squalls are expected to end by this afternoon as the ridge of high pressure builds over the lakes. For snowfall accumulation totals please refer to the weather summary for Southern Ontario.

Motorists should note that dangerous winter driving conditions from whiteout conditions will suddenly develop from bursts of heavy snow and blowing snow. Quickly accumulating snow will also be a significant hazard.

Environment Canada continues to closely monitor this situation.

More snow on the way for southern Ontario

The record snowfall that has been hitting London and other communities in southwestern Ontario is expected to ease Thursday, but there is more snowy weather in the forecast.

Some areas east of Lake Huron have already seen as much as 177 centimetres fall since the weekend, and the region's communities are forecast to receive another five to 10 centimetres Thursday, as well as two to four cm Friday.

CBC meteorologist Natasha Ramsahai said Thursday morning there was still a line of snowfall stretching from Goderich to London. There was a snow squall warning for the area, but squalls were easing because the strong northwest winds are easing, she said.

Ramsahai said what's made the week's weather unusual has been the persistence of the squalls, which usually last a day or two.

"This has been going on since Saturday, hence the heavy amounts," she said.

To add to the province's weather woes, a "monster storm" developing in Colorado may hit all of southern Ontario on Sunday, potentially bringing 10 cm of snow to Toronto and freezing rain to the Ottawa Valley, she said.

The London area has received more than a metre of snow since the weekend, more snow than is considered normal for the entire month of December. The snow was blamed for hundreds of accidents and brought communities in the region to a standstill.

The Thames Valley District School Board in London said Thursday that all schools are open, but parents and students were urged to use extra caution.
