Freezing rain expected Wednesday.

What:
Freezing rain with ice accretion of 2 to 4 mm on some surfaces.

When:

Additional information:
This freezing rain event will not be nearly as significant as the ice storm from this past weekend.

Freezing rain begins east of Lake Huron Wednesday morning before reaching central Ontario later Wednesday afternoon. Precipitation may begin as snow and ice pellets for some areas. Easterly winds gusting 50 to 60 km/h may exacerbate any tree damage.

As temperatures rise above the freezing mark, freezing rain will transition to rain Wednesday afternoon. For locations over higher terrain, freezing rain may linger into early Wednesday evening.
