It was a snow day for thousands of students across Bruce and Grey County Friday. “I was very excited,” said Norah, Mavis and Kate, who were out shovelling driveways in Walkerton on Friday. “Jumped out of bed and made some snow angels.

So, I was really excited, but at the same time I wasn’t, because I knew I would have to shovel the driveway,” said Mackenzie, Cassidy, and Charlie, shovelling driveways just a street over. There's a pretty good chance there's more shoveling in the future for residents of Midwestern Ontario. The forecast calls for up to 100 centimetres of snow for parts of the region.

Snow squalls will persist through the weekend, which means getting from place to place may not be as easy it was a just a few days ago. Emergency officials said a bit of preparation can go a long way to ensuring you make it to your destination safely. “We want to make sure that you've got your vehicle topped up with gas.

Make sure your tires have ample tread. If you don't go with snow tires, make sure you have a good all-season tire,” said Huron County OPP Const. Cra.
