WEST CARLETON – Environment Canada is calling for freezing rain in parts of Ottawa this morning (Nov. 27) including West Carleton.

“Freezing rain is expected to develop this morning and may persist for a couple of hours before changing over to a cold rain as temperatures edge just above the zero degree mark,” Environment Canada released in a statement early this morning.

Surfaces such as highways, roads, walkways and parking lots may become icy and slippery. Poor weather conditions may contribute to transportation delays.

Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. To report severe weather, send an email to ONstorm@canada.ca or tweet reports using #ONStorm.
