Residents in Collingwood, Ontario, are facing slippery conditions today, March 20, 2026, as a wintry mix of snow and ice pellets moves through the region. According to Environment Canada, the weather system is expected to last from early this morning through the early afternoon.
The local area, including Barrie and Hillsdale, could see between 2 and 5 centimetres of snow and ice pellets build up on the ground. There is also a risk of freezing rain, which can create a thin layer of ice on many surfaces. These conditions are expected to make roads and walkways difficult to navigate for everyone in the community.
Officials are warning that the ice and snow may impact rush hour traffic, making the morning commute more difficult than usual. Pedestrians are also being told to be careful, as the slippery surfaces increase the risk of falling and getting hurt. Residents should keep an eye on the weather as the system moves through the area today.
