Ottawa has recently experienced a record-setting winter for snow accumulation, but the weather is taking a new turn. A yellow advisory for freezing drizzle has been lifted for Ottawa-Gatineau and most of eastern Ontario, yet a new advisory has been issued for a wide swath of Northern Ontario, including the Greater Sudbury area.

The advisory warns that light ice build-up will make surfaces icy and slippery. Freezing drizzle is expected to leave a thin glaze on untreated surfaces, posing risks for pedestrians and drivers alike. Environment Canada describes the advisory as ‘moderate, localized and/or short-term’ with hazardous weather that may cause damage, disruption, or health impacts.

As of 3:07 a.m. on March 22, the freezing drizzle advisory was in effect, and it is expected to impact travel and daily activities. Cities such as Kingston, Belleville, and Quinte West remain outside the advisory but are under a special weather statement for freezing rain or freezing drizzle.

Environment Canada has issued a warning urging residents to be very careful if walking or driving, emphasizing that icy surfaces will likely form and could be difficult to detect. The impact level of the advisory is moderate, and the forecast confidence is high, indicating that conditions may not improve quickly.

Travelers are advised to maintain slower speeds and exercise caution until conditions improve. The high temperature for the day is expected to hover around 0°C, further complicating the situation.

As the situation develops, officials continue to monitor the weather closely. Observers are encouraged to stay updated on the latest advisories and take necessary precautions to ensure safety.

Environment Canada has issued a special weather statement for Metro Vancouver, warning residents of potential snowfall through Wednesday. This weather system is expected to bring flurries or rain showers from Monday through Wednesday morning, with snowfall accumulations varying across the region.

In Metro Vancouver, between two and five centimetres of snow could accumulate, while higher elevations may see up to eight centimetres. The special weather statement affects several cities, including Vancouver, Burnaby, and New Westminster.

A cool and unstable airmass over the South Coast will bring freezing levels close to sea level before Tuesday morning, according to Environment Canada. This shift in weather is anticipated to disrupt commutes in southwestern British Columbia.

Drivers are warned to allow for extra time during their morning commutes due to potential travel delays. Commuters are advised to prepare for the possibility of snow affecting road conditions.

Interestingly, Vancouver has yet to record a measurable snowfall this winter at the city’s airport, making this weather event particularly notable. The provincial Transportation Ministry has urged drivers to ensure their vehicles are equipped with winter tires, especially in areas where heavier snowfall is expected.

As of now, approximately 1,300 customers in Northern British Columbia are affected by power outages, with 21 outages reported. These outages may be related to the adverse weather conditions impacting the region.

Snow is expected to make a late-winter visit to southwestern British Columbia, marking a significant change in the weather pattern. Details remain unconfirmed regarding the full extent of the impact on local communities and infrastructure.
