The total snowfall is expected to reach 15 to 20 centimetres; an upgrade from the 10 to 15 centimetres originally forecast earlier this week.

Environment Canada warns of impacts from the snowstorm including reduced visibility in heavy snow, difficult travelling conditions, and the potential for isolated power outages. 

It is advised that locals be prepared to adjust their driving with changing road conditions, and be aware of quickly changing travel conditions.
