TORONTO - Some areas of central Ontario could be in for an early taste of winter weather.

Environment Canada has issued a special weather statement for Huron-Perth, Mount Forest-Arthur-Northern Wellington County, Dufferin-Innisfil, Grey-Bruce and Barrie-Orillia-Midland.

The agency says those areas will get some lake effect snow this morning from a system that has developed over Lake Huron and Georgian Bay.

Because the ground temperature is still warm, snow accumulations in most areas are only expected to be in the two-to-five centimetre range.

However, there could be five to 10 centimetres in the Barrie area.

Drivers are also being warned there could be poor visibility this morning.
