The heaviest snow is expected between Cobourg, Kingston, and Bancroft, where 10-20 cm of accumulation is possible. Ottawa can expect 5-10 cm of snow through Friday evening.
A narrow transition between rain and snow will set up over the GTA, leading to greater uncertainty in this region. Mostly rain is favoured in the forecast at this time.
5-15 mm of rainfall with additional snowmelt could lead to ponding and pooling in the area, especially around blocked drains.
Conditions will improve to kick off the weekend on Saturday, but weak instability lingering over the province will allow bursts of on-and-off snow to persist through the weekend.
