It may be spring but Ontario's weather will continue to feel more like winter over the next few days.

More snow is on the way for southern Ontario and the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) on Wednesday and the province will see another blast of wintery cold air later this week.

The Weather Network issued a winter weather travel advisory for Toronto on Wednesday morning saying brief heavy snowfall can amount to 2-4 cm of snow in the city.

It also urges caution on the roads during the Wednesday afternoon commute because the snow could lead to "very poor visibility in heavy snow and blowing snow."

TWN says the poor visibility and heavy snow should end by the early evening.

Heavier snow and strong winds could also develop across Hamilton and Niagara during the afternoon.

"A sharp cold front is expected to move south through the area this afternoon. A narrow band of heavy flurries combined with gusty northwest winds associated with the front will lead to a relatively short but sudden drop in visibility," the network adds.

The Weather Network says the heaviest amounts of snow on Wednesday will be near Lake Huron and Georgian Bay, with the snow belts possibly seeing accumulations of 5-15 cm of snow.

Unfortunately, the winter weather doesn't end after Wednesday.

"If you're hoping for a quick return to last week's warmth, don't hold your breath. Thursday and Friday will be the coldest days of the week, as much of the region remains below freezing," the Weather Network says.
