Grey, Bruce, Huron, and Perth counties are under a winter travel advisory all day on November 29.

Environment Canada said additional snowfall of 5 to 15 centimetres is expected due to lake effect snow. Poor visibility on the roads is likely with heavy and blowing snow.

Drivers are asked to adjust their driving according to the weather. Snow will escalate, but will not be as intense as squalls on Tuesday.
