Wednesday, 15 February 2012 08:36

With a wintery mix on the way for southern Ontario, Environment Canada has issued a freezing rain warning. In its warning, the weather agency says, "A low pressure system over Oklahoma will head towards Southern Ontario tonight. Precipitation will begin in southwestern regions overnight and likely start as freezing rain or snow then change to rain by early Thursday morning." The forecast calls for a low of -3 tonight with a mix of freezing rain and snow. At some point on Thursday morning, that mix will change to rain, and by the afternoon, we'll hit a high of plus 6.
