 Monday September 30 2019 - :

Snow will gradually taper off today as the low pressure system responsible moves off to the east. A further 2 to 5 cm can be expected, mainly this morning. 

Be prepared to adjust your driving with changing road conditions. Surfaces such as highways, roads, walkways and parking lots may become difficult to navigate due to accumulating snow. Take frequent breaks and avoid strain when clearing snow.
