A Freezing Rain Warning has been issued for Northern and Southern Peterborough County.
Environment Canada is calling for a prolonged period of freezing rain on Wednesday night, with ice accretion of 3-to-7 millimetres.
The official forecast says: there will be the chance for scattered showers across the area with steadier rain expected to develop late this afternoon. The rain is expected to transition over to freezing rain this evening as temperatures drop to or slightly below freezing. Freezing rain will transition to snow, at times mixed with ice pellets, by early Thursday morning. Periods of light snow will linger through Thursday, though any accumulations are expected to be minor.
Officials say surfaces such as highways, roads, walkways and parking lots may become icy and slippery.
