Winter Storm Warning Downgraded to Snowfall Warning

Wednesday, 2 February 2022 16:35

Environment Canada has downgraded the winter storm warning to a snowfall warning for most of Southwestern Ontario, including Oxford County.

They are expecting 15-20 cm of snow to fall by Thursday night. Snowfall rates may reach up to 2 cm per hour at times.

This will cause reduced visibility on our highways. Motorists are being reminded to slow down and drive to the conditions.
