"Significant snowfall" expected Thursday

Environment Canada has issued a Winter storm watch in effect for the North Bay area.

While the forecast is calling for scattered flurries today (Tuesday), a stronger low pressure system is expected to bring what officials call “significant snowfall” to the region late tomorrow (Wednesday) through Thursday.

Considerable uncertainty remains with the exact track of this Colorado low.

Even a slight northward or southward shift in the track of this storm will affect how much snow falls at any particular location.
