Environment Canada Meteorologist Trudy Kidd says it's time to put those snow tires to good use.

UPDATE: A snow squall watch has been issued for Oxford County, with up to 15 centimetres of snow in the forecast for tomorrow.

OXFORD COUNTY - Some areas in southwestern Ontario are getting blasted with snow today.

Snow squall warnings are in effect for Owen Sound and other areas south of Georgian Bay with up to 60 centimetres possible for the next 24 hours.

Closer to home, the Waterloo Region is under a winter weather travel advisory with 5 to 10 centimetres of snow possible for today.

Environment Canada Meteorologist Trudy Kidd says we're quite lucky here in Oxford County.

"Just a chance of flurries today, but the winds are pretty strong and it's cold out so people are going to want to bundle up when they head outside. If you're travelling anywhere, you should check the forecast for where you're going."

But with that being said, Trudy says the snow could be heading our way tomorrow.

"I'm seeing Friday afternoon, a chance of snow squalls for Oxford County and London area. So if you're travelling you'll want to prepare for that."

We could get up to 10 centimetres of snow when all is said and done.

Looking at the weekend forecast, Kidd says we can expect below average temperatures during the day.

"Temperatures this time of the year are typically around minus 1 during the day and minus 9 overnight. We're seeing pretty close to that overnight, but a little cooler than that for the weekend. The weekend is looking like minus 5, so it's going to feel cool."
