While the core of the system is projected to remain south of the border, its northern edge may still sweep across regions from Windsor to the Greater Toronto Area. Forecasters say the exact path remains uncertain, but current projections suggest that areas along and south of Highway 401 could see notable accumulations if the storm shifts even slightly north. Some models indicate the potential for 10–20 centimetres of snow, with locally higher amounts possible if lake‑enhanced bands develop.

Trump Orders Decisive Strikes on Yemen's Houthis, Casualties Reported


In a significant escalation, U.S. President Donald Trump has authorized a series of airstrikes targeting Houthi rebels in Yemen. The operation, described as "decisive and powerful," aims to counter the Iran-backed group's activities in the Red Sea, which have disrupted global shipping and posed threats to international security.

The strikes, carried out on Saturday, resulted in at least 31 fatalities and over 100 injuries, according to reports from Yemen's Houthi-run health ministry. Many of the casualties were women and children, highlighting the devastating impact on civilians. The attacks targeted key Houthi military sites, including missile defenses and bases in Sanaa and other regions.

President Trump emphasized the necessity of the operation, stating that the U.S. would deploy "overwhelming lethal force" to ensure the safety of American and allied vessels. He also issued a stern warning to Iran, the Houthis' primary backer, demanding an end to their support for the group.

The Houthis have condemned the strikes as a "war crime" and vowed to respond with escalation. The situation remains tense, with further actions anticipated in the coming weeks. This marks a pivotal moment in the ongoing conflict, with potential implications for regional stability and international relations.
