Ontario bracing for 'huge system', buried B.C. gets more snow, Prairies warm-up
CTV
Snow storm coming from Texas will impact Ontario, Quebec, Atlantic Canada on Friday, with B.C. and Yukon dealing with more wet snow.
March is coming in like a lion to Canada's coasts, with more snowstorm systems heading toward the country.
Days after a messy Colorado low weather system struck Ontario, Quebec and Atlantic Canada, a Texas low is "brewing."
"This is going to be a doozy," Kelsey McEwen, CTV's meteorologist said on Your Morning on Wednesday. "Big, high impact storm to round out the week leaving perhaps 10 to 20 centimetres of snow on the ground (across southern Ontario) as we head into Saturday."
Anticipated snow totals will become clearer for communities as the storm approaches, McEwen explained.
The system, which is moving north towards Canada from Texas, is bringing low pressure to southwest Ontario arriving around noon on Friday, where it will travel northeast towards Ottawa.
"If ever there was a reason to start your weekend early, this is it because it's going to get messy on the roads Friday night right through some major commuting areas," McEwen said.
A smaller system travelling across Ontario Tuesday will dump flurries across the province and bring high snow totals to Quebec and Atlantic Canada.
