A major storm is expected to hit southern Ontario late Tuesday, bringing up to 30 centimetres of snow in some parts and strong winds.

A low-pressure system that is massing in Texas on Monday will push into the Great Lakes on Tuesday, said CBC meteorologist Johanna Wagstaffe. That system will bring periods of light snow to southwestern Ontario starting Tuesday, she said.

The snow will become heavy Wednesday from 3 a.m. to 9 a.m., said Wagstaffe.

Environment Canada said in a special weather statement that 20 to 30 centimetres of snow could accumulate in areas stretching from Windsor in the west to Brockville in the east by Wednesday afternoon, after which the storm is expected to taper off.
