Special weather statements and warnings have been issued for much of Southern Ontario heading into the weekend.
Environment Canada is forecasting mixed precipitation on Friday, from freezing rain in the southernmost part of the province to significant snow further north.
No matter what's falling from the sky, the weather agency advises that travel could be difficult, adding that motorists should be extra cautious on the roads or postpone travel while the statements are in effect.
Sarnia-Lambton could see five to 10 millimetres of freezing rain before temperatures rise above freezing and it switches over to rain. A freezing rain warning is posted for the region.
A freezing rain warning is also in effect for Windsor-Essex and Chatham-Kent. The national weather agency said those areas could see two to five millimetres of ice accretion.
Environment Canada also issued a freezing rain warning for Huron, Perth, and Southern Bruce and Grey Counties, as well as Northern Bruce and Grey Counties.
The national weather agency said ice accretion of near five millimetres is likely.
The heaviest freezing rain may remain just south of the Kitchener area.
The warnings have been issued for Friday morning and are expected to last into the evening.
