Arctic air pours in




Eastern Ontario this afternoon... Blowing Snow near Manotick and a twisted Kemptville road sign knocked over by the cold winds along the 416.

After several centimetres of snow overnight a strong arctic front raced through the region this morning. Behind the front winds are gusting over 50km/h across the region and the temperature is plummeting. At 10am this morning Kemptville was -2C we are now -10C with a northwest wind of 50km/h and a windchill of -20C. It will dip down to -20C tonight. Roads are slippery and visibility is reduced in blowing snow in many areas.
