WEATHER ALERT
ENVIRONMENT CANADA
**************************
Freezing drizzle advisory in effect for:

  • Elliot Lake - Ranger Lake
  • Blind River - Thessalon
  • Espanola - Killarney
  • Manitoulin Island
  • Greater Sudbury and vicinity

Areas of freezing drizzle are expected or occurring.

Freezing drizzle continues.

The freezing drizzle may become patchy later this evening, but overnight and into Monday morning more widespread freezing drizzle or light freezing rain will redevelop.

This freezing drizzle or light freezing rain will end by Monday evening.

There is potential for the freezing drizzle advisories to be upgraded to freezing rain warnings.

Surfaces such as highways, roads, walkways and parking lots may become icy and slippery. Freezing drizzle can produce thin, hard-to-detect layers of ice. Take extra care when walking or driving in affected areas.

Freezing drizzle advisories are issued when drizzle falling in sub-zero temperatures is expected to freeze on contact, and over time create icy surfaces.
