UPDATE: Monday storm will ease up heading into Tuesday

There are still scattered road closures throughout the region heading into the evening after a blustery day.

The blizzard warnings have given way to snow squall warnings for the whole region, with a blowing snow advisory still in effect for North Wellington. Monday night the wind will die down as the night progresses, remaining cloudy with some lingering flurries, but overall snow coverage decreases.

On Tuesday, the weather will ease off significantly, though there is still the possibility of light snow toward the evening. Most of the power outages in our region have been fixed, though some small pockets in Walkerton and Clinton still don't have hydro, but Hydro One expects all power in the province to be back up and running no later than 11:30 p.m. Monday night.
