Environment Canada has issued a freezing rain warning for Guelph, Ontario, on the morning of Friday, March 20, 2026. The alert also includes Erin and Southern Wellington County, as ice is expected to build up across the region during the early hours.
Weather experts expect between 2 and 5 mm of ice to accumulate on the ground. This buildup will likely make roads and walkways very slippery, and officials warn that there could be some local utility outages as a result.
People traveling during the morning rush hour should be extra careful because of the hazardous conditions. The freezing rain is expected to turn into regular rain later this morning as temperatures rise above the freezing mark toward a high of 9°C.
