Another reason to stay home and self-isolate.
An intense slow moving low is headed our way from Manitoba.
Bill Laidlaw of Signal Weather Services says the system will hit Kenora, Red Lake, Ear Falls and Vermilion Bay later this morning (Thursday), reaching Dryden, Sioux Lookout and Ignace later this afternoon/evening.
Laidlaw says we can initially expect 10-12 millimetres of rain.
That will turn into freezing rain in the evening with up to 2 millimetres of ice on surfaces.
Laidlaw adds that will be followed by roughly 5 centimetres of heavy, wet snow.
He says it will clear up Saturday with a high of +2.
