TORONTO – It’s still technically summer but people in northern Ontario woke up Wednesday morning to a winter scene: snow.
While it wasn’t a blizzard, the five centimetres, according to some reports, was enough to stick to the ground and cover trees and homes with a light blanket of snow.
The winter weather was accompanied by frost alerts stretching across a portion of northern Ontario from Red Lake to North Bay.
One Twitter user in Geraldton, Ontario near Lake Nipigon posted photos of the snow on Twitter and Instagram.
