The Haliburton Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) is advising residents and travellers that a significant weather event is approaching the area.
Snow squalls are expected to begin late this afternoon, continue overnight and into Friday morning bringing hazardous conditions to the region. Snowfall amounts may reach up to 15 to 30 cm in Haliburton County.
The Haliburton OPP is warning that the combination of significant snowfall and blowing snow will lead to reduced visibility and slippery road conditions. Drivers are urged to exercise caution and stay informed of weather warnings.
Travel plans should be adjusted to account for these conditions. Allow extra time for travel and check road conditions before heading out.
