Lake-effect snow could slow travel south of Georgian Bay

Environment Canada says higher terrain south of Georgian Bay could see localized snowfall of 5 to 10 cm from Friday evening, Nov. 13, into Saturday morning. Heavier bursts could reduce visibility.

The statement covers areas around Barrie, Collingwood, Owen Sound, Hanover, Dundalk and Shelburne. The agency expects lake-effect snow to intensify Friday evening.

Check Ontario 511 before travelling. Slow down on slippery roads, leave more space between vehicles and adjust travel plans if conditions deteriorate.
