You’ll need to shovel your driveway Tuesday morning before heading to work, but forecasters are warning the worst of the snowstorm is yet to come.
The London area is under a snowfall warning from Environment Canada, as the storm system that arrived Monday night is set to intensify Tuesday afternoon and overnight.
By the time the system clears out of the region Wednesday afternoon, the region could be left with total accumulation of between 10 and 20 cm of snow.
