A significant freezing rain even is also expected for some areas including Caledon and Dufferin County.
Forecasters are warning drivers that highways, roads, walkways and parking lots may become icy and slippery.
The national weather forecaster says a system known as a “Colorado low” will move across the lower Great Lakes on Monday and is responsible for a snowfall warning in northeastern Ontario, where forecasters predict up to 20 centimetres of snow.
Good morning, Halton.
Due to fog and the possibility of freezing rain, there are some school bus cancellations in the north end, so expect more children to be on foot today.
