Greater Sudbury, areas of the northeast under freezing rain warning | CBC News
Environment Canada is calling for freezing rain for the areas of Greater Sudbury, Temiskaming Shores, Temagami, Kirkland Lake, and Englehart.
A warning from the weather service says patchy, light freezing rain will begin Friday afternoon and continue into the overnight, with intensity expected to then increase on Saturday morning with steady, moderate freezing rain.
Slippery conditions are expected. Surfaces such as highways, roads, walkways and parking lots will become icy, slippery and hazardous. Ice build-up may cause tree branches to break and utility outages may occur.
People are asked to slow down driving in slippery conditions, watch for taillights ahead and maintain a safe following distance.
