Another round of snow on the way

Snow and freezing rain overnight have left roads icy and slow this morning. The bulk of the precipitation has ended at this time in Kemptville. Freezing Rain Warnings are in effect but will be lifted shortly. Meanwhile the mild air that was expected today will have a nearly impossible task, as it did last week, of removing the cold air from the valleys. We were expecting a high of 11C today, but we will be lucky to reach 3 or 4C. It is currently -2C in Kemptville.

Tonight colder air will begin invading the region again as low pressure takes shape over the Ohio Valley. Winter Storm Watches have been posted again for this new event in Ontario for tomorrow. A band of precipitation will bring from 5-15cm of snow and ice from Windsor to Montreal and Ottawa. Later forecasts today will allow us to be more specific on exact amount and warnings for the particular regions in the province.
