The official start to fall is still days away (September 23), but it appears the season has already been skipped entirely in parts of northern Ontario.
"Rain, snow and a rain/snow mix is falling across parts of northwestern Ontario this morning," says Weather Network meteorologist Brett Soderholm. "Any of the mixed precipitation is expected to transition over to rain throughout the morning."
Less than 5 cm had been recorded before 8 a.m. ET, but it was enough to catch some residents off guard as it is still technically summer right now.
Some northern Ontarians took to Twitter to express their disappointment with the early arrival of the fluffy white stuff.
