Freezing rain, snow hit southern Ontario
Areas of southern Ontario are receiving snow and freezing rain as a series of low-pressure systems move in from the United States, creating a slippery morning commute for some.
Temperatures are expected to rise this afternoon, however.
Environment Canada has issued freezing rain warnings for much of southern Ontario as the warm front moves along a northeasterly path. Precipitation will change from snow to freezing rain and then just rain in many areas.
Although warnings were issued for much of southern Ontario, they have been gradually lifted as the system moves northeast and temperatures rise.
According to an update from Environment Canada issued around 12:30 p.m. ET, most of the areas still affected are north and west of Toronto. A wide swath of southern Ontario, from Kingston to Parry Sound, remains under a freezing rain warning.
