The agency also said strong winds will whip up the snow and suddenly cause very low visibility with blowing and drifting snow.

“Poor winter driving conditions are anticipated,” the weather office said. “Motorists should drive according to the road and weather conditions, and allow extra time to reach their destination.

The flurries and snow squalls should taper off later Thursday night.
