Southern Ontario was under severe weather warnings on Friday, November 28, 2025, due to heavy snow squalls and strong winds following hazardous conditions the previous day. While power was restored to most customers, Canada's forecast agency predicted more localized squalls with up to two feet of snow in areas between Georgian Bay and Lake Ontario, including Burlington, Cobourg, Hamilton, Kitchener, and Oakville. The squalls, expected to last until Saturday morning, could cause near-zero visibility due to strong winds and blowing snow. Officials warned of possible road closures and advised against nonessential travel and outdoor activities. The same weather system is causing heavy lake-effect snow in the US, while Toronto is expected to experience only flurries. Forecasters are also tracking another storm system that could bring additional snow to the region starting Saturday night.
