With a significant winter storm expected this weekend, Environment Canada has issued a special weather statement for Greater Sudbury and vicinity.
A low pressure system is expected to track over Southern Ontario on Saturday. This low pressure system has the potential to bring significant snow and blowing snow to the area through the weekend.
At this time there is uncertainty as to the exact track of this low pressure system and as a result there is uncertainty in total snowfall amounts.
The heaviest snow is likely to fall during the day Saturday and into Saturday night — at the same time as the city's Santa Claus Parade. Snow will then taper to scattered flurries on Sunday.
