A snowfall warning is in effect for Greater Napanee and the surrounding area, with up to 20 centimetres of snow expected on Wednesday.
Environment officials issued the yellow warning Tuesday afternoon, saying significant snowfall will move into the region by Wednesday morning and continue through the night. Forecast confidence is high, with impacts expected to be moderate.
Snowfall amounts of 15 to 20 centimetres are forecast, along with poor visibility during periods of heavy snow and local blowing snow.
Lake effect snow may affect areas from Prince Edward County to Kingston overnight before easing early Wednesday. An Alberta clipper system is then expected to push into the region later Wednesday morning, bringing more widespread snow.
Travel conditions are expected to deteriorate as the day goes on. Roads and walkways are likely to become snow covered and slippery, and visibility may be reduced at times.
Motorists are advised to allow extra time for travel and be prepared for rapidly changing conditions.
