Environment Canada warns of lake effect snow tapering to flurries Tuesday morning in Barrie, Collingwood, and Hillsdale.

Hazards for residents include poor visibility in areas of blowing snow, icy and slippery road conditions, and additional snowfall amounts of 2 cm to 5 cm.

The weather agency expects the lake effect snow to taper to flurries headed into the afternoon.

Northwest winds gusting up to 60 km/h will result in areas of blowing snow, reducing visibility.

The weather agency warns that travel will be hazardous with poor conditions due to low visibility in blowing snow along with icy and slippery road conditions, rather than large snowfall accumulations.

Environment Canada recommends people slow down, watch for tail lights ahead and be prepared to stop. Be prepared to adjust your driving with changing road conditions.
