A senior Israeli official has stated that Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, was killed in a series of U.S.–Israeli strikes targeting leadership sites in Tehran.

Ontario Braces for Severe Weather: Blizzard Warnings and Damaging Winds

A powerful cold front is sweeping across Ontario, bringing with it damaging winds and blizzard conditions that have prompted widespread warnings. Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) has issued blizzard warnings, wind warnings, and special weather statements for much of the province.

The hazardous mix of heavy snowfall and strong winds is expected to create dangerous driving conditions and reduce visibility. The eastern shores of Lake Superior and Georgian Bay, including communities like Wawa, Batchawana Bay, and Parry Sound, are likely to experience whiteout conditions and lake-enhanced snowfall.

In southern Ontario, including the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), wind gusts of up to 70-90 km/h are anticipated, with the potential for localized power outages. Motorists are advised to postpone non-essential travel and ensure their devices are fully charged if they must travel.

As temperatures drop overnight, residents can expect frigid conditions with wind chills making it feel even colder. Environment Canada urges everyone to stay informed about the latest weather alerts and to exercise caution when commuting.
