Freezing rain is expected Wednesday afternoon and evening.
Precipitation will begin as snow and ice pellets Wednesday morning. Snow and ice pellet amounts of 2 to 5 cm are possible before the precipitation changes to freezing rain Wednesday afternoon. Freezing rain will last for several hours before changing to rain Wednesday night.
This wintry precipitation is associated with a Texas Low that will track across Southern Ontario Wednesday and Wednesday night.
Surfaces such as highways, roads, walkways and parking lots may become icy and slippery. Slow down driving in slippery conditions. Watch for taillights ahead and maintain a safe following distance.
Freezing rain warnings are issued when rain falling in sub-zero temperatures creates ice build-up and icy surfaces.
