Sudden whiteout conditions and "bursts of heavy snow" are possible for Windsor-Essex and Chatham-Kent Tuesday, says Environment Canada. The weather authority issued a snow squall watch for the area warning visibility will be reduced because of heavy snow and strong winds. "The snow squalls may extend quite far inland at times tonight, likely crossing Highway 402 and possibly extending across Highway 401 in Chatham-Kent," cautioned the watch that was posted just before 5 a.m. About 10 centimetres of snow fell in Essex County over the past 24 hours, Environment Canada said Tuesday morning. ​LaSalle Fire Service dealt with at least six injury accidents Monday afternoon and urged motorists to slow down in snowy conditions.
