The lake-effect storm is expected to dump as much as four feet of snow on Buffalo by Sunday.
But Environment Canada Meteorologist Geoff Coulson tells CP24 that southwest winds throughout the weekend should mean that the GTA will largely be protected from the brunt of the storm.
Lake-effect snow develops when cold air flows across the warmer waters of the Great Lakes. It can result in as much as five to eight centimetres of snow per hour but tends to be very localized.
Environment Canada has already issued a snow squall watch for the Niagara Region, warning of snowfall amounts of 30 to 60 centimetres and “near zero” visibility in some areas. The weather agency has also issued a handful of other watches and warnings for other parts of southern Ontario, including Grey-Bruce County where it says 50 to 80 centimetres of snow could fall between now and Sunday, and Barrie“All of this is driven by what the low level winds are doing and as long as they stay from the southwest or the west southwest these bands can lock in and give significant snowfall accumulations over a period of time,” Coulson warned on Friday.
