If you thought winter was over, a new forecast shared that Ontario's weather is getting snowy again this week.

Back-to-back storms are bringing up to 15 cm of snow across southern Ontario, including the GTA.

The Weather Network said to expect "wet, heavy snow," ice pellets, flurries and rain/snow mixes from Wednesday to Friday.

A low-pressure system will track across southwestern Ontario in the afternoon on Wednesday, February 26 and reach the GTA by the morning on Thursday, February 27.

Places in southwestern Ontario from the shores of Lake Erie to the Niagara Region are forecast to get a rain-ice mix that will quickly transition to rain.

Snow will start in the morning and then transition into a mix of rain, snow, ice and flurries on Thursday afternoon in the GTA.

According to Toronto's weather forecast, there will be less than three cm of snow by Thursday night.

In the GTA, less than five cm of snow is expected.

The Weather Network said that around five cm of "wet, heavy snow" is likely north of the GTA.

Strong blustery winds from the northwest will enhance accumulations in areas north of the GTA and cause blowing snow across roads.

Another blast of snow will hit southern Ontario and the GTA on Friday, February 28, according to The Weather Network.

Snow will reach the GTA by Friday afternoon and impact the evening commute.

It's forecast that widespread five to 15 cm of snow is likely from the shores of Lake Huron into the GTA and across eastern Ontario.

There is a chance of rain mixing with the snow at times.
