Environment Canada has issued a special weather statement for Montreal, Laval and the Vaudreuil areas, because flurries are in the forecast.

The weather agency is warning that flurries, sometimes heavy, are expected to begin late Wednesday afternoon and last into the evening.

The rapid accumulation of about 2 to 4 cms of snow means visibility could be reduced to near zero at times, making travel difficult.

Evening rush hour could be affected, and commuters should leave extra time for travel, said Environment Canada in a statement.
