Slippery Roads Monday Morning

It's back to 'winter driving conditions' in our region this morning.

Many parts of Midwestern Ontario got the predicted 10 centimeters of snow, or more.  Some areas even had a brief period of freezing rain overnight.

Highways and county roads are slippery and slushy with drifted sections.   Plows are out.

Meanwhile, Grey County OPP report that Highway 6 through Williamsford is now open after flooding on the weekend.   But a number of roads in the Township of Chatsworth remain closed.
