Snow In The Forecast For Back to School

It could be a slow and slippery ride back-to-school Monday in southwestern Ontario.

Environment Canada has issued a special weather statement for Windsor-Essex, Chatham-Kent and London-Middlesex for Sunday evening and Monday morning.

A low-pressure system over the province is bringing this new round of snow that is expected to taper off Monday morning. Freezing rain and drizzle mixed with snow was reported in some areas Sunday night.

The weather agency says snowfall totals will average around 10cm across southern Ontario with higher amounts closer to Lake Huron and Georgian Bay.

The snow could make the Monday commute slow as thousands of students head back to class following the holiday break. Untreated roads could be slippery.
