(SOUTHERN BRUCE COUNTY, ON) – A winter storm is currently settled over Southern Bruce County.  High wind and blowing snow are creating pockets of zero visibility and very hazardous driving conditions. 
The South Bruce OPP is urging motorists to consider postponing non-essential travel as conditions deteriorate quickly when the wind gets stronger.

For those who decide to travel in this storm, keep your headlights and tail lights on and clear of snow.  Remember to keep your speed down, “If you see snow, go slow”.
