A strong and widespread air pressure system coming from the U.S. will bring snowfall, wind, and icy conditions to several 好色tv provinces this week, an Environment Canada meteorologist said Tuesday.

Steven Flisfeder said the low atmosphere pressure system -- known as the Colorado low -- typically forms east of the American Rockies before making its way northeast, towards the Great Lakes.
