Mild Weekend Storm Could Cause Slippery Drive

It could be a sloppy drive for many in the province on Saturday, as a "significant winter storm'' is expected to hit the province.

Environment Canada is warning a strengthening weather system could bring snow to the region late Saturday morning, only for that snow to turn to turn to freezing rain in the afternoon.

The national weather service has put Perth and Grey Counties under freezing rain warnings, while much of Huron and Bruce remain under a special weather statement.
