Slippery road conditions after last night’s snowfall

In an advisory issued at 9:23 pm last night, Environment Canada has warned morning commuters to be prepared to adjust driving with changing road conditions.

“Slow down driving in slippery conditions. Watch for taillights ahead and maintain a safe following distance. If visibility is reduced while driving, turn on your lights and maintain a safe following distance,” it said.

The agency said local snowfall amounts of 5 to 10 cm were projected in Durham with reduced visibility in heavy snow and local blowing snow with icy and slippery road conditions.

The snow was expected to stop by early Tuesday morning.

Snow was expected last night as colder air moved into southern Ontario.
