Freezing Drizzle Advisory in Effect for Renfrew County

While Renfrew County was spared the brunt of last night’s freezing rain in eastern Ontario, road conditions could still be icy this morning.

A special weather statement for the region was issued yesterday afternoon before being upgraded to a freezing drizzle advisory.

The OPP says conditions are ideal for the development of black ice on roads this morning.

Hastings and other neighbouring counties had anywhere from two-to-five centimeters of freezing rain overnight.

Areas like Combermere and Palmer Rapids closer to the county border may see more ice build-up on roads this morning.
