If you’re begging for the snow to stop, unfortunately reprieve is not on the way just yet.

If you’re begging for the snow to stop, unfortunately reprieve is not on the way just yet, with snow squall warnigs and watches covering southern Ontario.

Thursday’s forecast is projected to bring more snow to the area, “Snow squalls on the way – an arctic cold front pushing through the area will bring a cold fresh infusion of this bitterly cold air,” said CTV London Meteorologist Julie Atchison.

There are snow squalls expected to roll through the area on Thursday, with localized snowfall amounts projected to be extremely high, “A band of snow is expected to set up,” explained Atchison. “Under this band we could see 10, 15 even 20 centimeters of snow if this band locks into place.”

Not only is heavy snowfall projected, but the wind is also expected to pick up.

“Expect gusty conditions,” warned Atchison. “You will see blowing snow on area highways, so give yourself lots of extra time as you head out the door Thursday.”

Environment Canada has a snow squall warning in effect for the region today, with heavy and blowing snow expected to limit visibility on roads.
