yellow watch - snow squall - in effect
Snow squalls and difficult travel conditions.
What: Heavy flurries with local blowing snow may give near zero visibilities. Snowfall amounts could reach above 5 centimetres over a short period of time.

Additional information:
Snow squalls are producing highly variable weather conditions. Conditions often go from clear skies to an area of heavy snow in just a few kilometres.
Visibilities may suddenly be reduced to almost zero at times in heavy snow.
Rapidly accumulating snow could further complicate travel.
Rush hour traffic may be affected in the morning and evening.
###
Snow squall watches are issued when localized, intense snowfall causing rapid accumulation and/or reduced visibility is possible.
