Windsor and Essex County snow plows and salters are ready to get to work.
Speaking on AM800's the Lynn Martin Show, Executive Director of Operations Dwayne Dawson says the main priority will be the main roads such as the EC Row Expressway, and bus routes.
If the city receives more than four inches of snow, plows will clear residential streets once the snow stops.
"We always say that any time you can keep your cars off the road when we do roll into residential streets, even on the main roads if there is parking available, off the main roads, so we can get the roads cleared from curb to curb, it just benefits everyone in the long run when the storm is over," says Dawson.
He points out snow removal is one portfolio that isn't really budget dependent.
"We look at each event and we clear it as required," he says. "We are not as concerned about the budget there, we are more concerned about the safety and making sure that the service is provide to the people and the budget doesn't come into play that much there."
In the county, Director of Infrastructure, Jane Mustac says it's all hands on deck with 18 plows covering over 1,500 km of roadway.
"Our crews are pretty good at dealing with those conditions," says Mustac. "They start the salt brine solution early so they can tackle the blowing winds sooner than later."
Environment Canada is calling for up to 20cm of snow and with the wind gusts, it could result in low visibility.
Meteorologist Gerald Chang says blowing snow will be a problem.
"With temperatures this cold, it is going to be very easy to blow around, for the winds to blow around the snow, and that's the key and with this much wind and this much snow, we are talking about low visibility."
Chang says things will get worse before they get better Monday night and driving will be worse for those in the county due to the blowing snow.
"When you are in the city, it is ok because there are buildings around you to block the wind a little bit and slows it down, but if you are outside the city, if you are in areas that are more barren it will be difficult to see outside the road."
According to The Weather Network Meteorologist, Matt Grinter, snow eill end overnight.
"Through the overnight we aren't expecting any more snow but as temperatures continue to drop and wind gusts still are relatively strong, looking at wind gusts upwards of 50km/h, we will be looking at some drifting snow but as we get into the morning hours we are free and clear of any snow or precipitation."
