THUNDER BAY – WEATHER – Winter seems to be unwilling to really give way to spring. There are freezing rain warnings and winter storm advisories in effect across Western and Northern Ontario.
Thunder Bay
Good morning, Thunder Bay! Today’s forecast is brought to you by Mother Nature, who seems to have mixed up her seasonal playlist once again. Get ready for a rollercoaster of weather emotions, folks!
We’ll start off with some periods of freezing rain changing to ice pellets in the morning. If you’re feeling lucky, there’s a risk of freezing rain late in the morning and early afternoon. But hey, if you’re into risky business, go ahead and test out those icy sidewalks – just make sure you have good health insurance!
If you’re near Lake Superior, you might experience some periods of rain early in the morning. Don’t worry, Lake Superior just likes to show off sometimes, but we all know snow is where it’s really at.
Oh, and don’t forget about the wind! We’ve got some strong north winds today, 30 km/h gusting to 50. Hold on to your hats, folks! And your scarves, mittens, and anything else that’s not bolted down.

As for tonight, get ready for some real fun. We’ve got ice pellets changing to snow at times heavy and local blowing snow in the evening. Snow and ice pellet amount 10 to 15 cm – that’s right, folks, it’s time to break out the shovels and snowblowers.
