| Brief Description | Freezing Rain Warning | |
| Detailed Description | Significant freezing rain and ice pellets likely, with potential ice storm conditions, particularly for Manitoulin Island. What: Prolonged period of freezing rain with ice accretion of 5 to 15 mm. Icy and slippery conditions. Utility outages and tree damage possible. When: Beginning late this afternoon or evening and ending early Saturday morning. Additional information: Snow is expected to move into the region during the day, but may change over to ice pellets as the day progresses. The threat of several hours of freezing rain tonight is possible, particularly for Manitoulin Island. For Sault Ste Marie and areas along the North Shore of the North Channel, significant accumulations of snow and ice pellets are possible along with the threat of freezing rain. One potential complication is how much of the precipitation falls in the form of ice pellets versus freezing rain. If most of the precipitation falls in the form of freezing rain, this has the potential to be a significant ice storm for the region. Easterly winds gusting up to 50 km/h could exacerbate the situation if there is ice build-up on tree limbs and power lines. After a brief break during the day Saturday, another winter storm will likely affect the region on Sunday with a threat of significant snowfall, freezing rain and ice pellets. More details on precipitation amounts will come in future updates. ### Surfaces such as highways, roads, walkways and parking lots will become icy, slippery and hazardous. Ice build-up may cause tree branches to break. Utility outages may occur. Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. To report severe weather, send an email to ONstorm@ec.gc.ca or post reports on X using #ONStorm. |
