Snowy and windy folks, a great day to stay inside, or close to home. The snow started just seconds ago in Kemptville and it is quickly becoming heavy with gusty northeast winds and blowing snow. Warnings are in effect for all our travel regions from Toronto into eastern Quebec and south into the northern portions of New York and most of New England. The culprit is a double low pressure area one in the lower lakes and the second moving up the east coast. The two will deliver 15-25cm of snow today with close to 30cm in southern Quebec. Winds are already gusting to 50km/h in Montreal and a little lower in Ontario. As the cold front on the back edge of the Great Lakes storm moves into southern Ontario later this morning, winds will increase from the southwest along Lake Ontario and the Seaway and increase to between 50 and 70km/h causing very poor visibilities in blowing and drifting snow. They will remain lighter in the 416 corridor. It is very cold as well with wind chills in the -20's
Next update by noon with photos I hope!
