Winter Storm Near Miss: Southern Ontario Could Still See Heavy Snow

  A major winter storm developing across the central United States is expected to track close enough to southern Ontario this weekend to bring the risk of significant snowfall. 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. The storm threat comes as southern Ontario braces for a surge of bitter cold.

Your daily horoscope: January 22, 2026

IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

Your way with words will open doors everywhere you go this year but it will also rub some people up the wrong way. Will you care? Of course not. There will be so much to do that you won’t have time to worry about anyone’s hurt feelings.

ARIES (March 21 - April 20):

You have always been a risk-taker but over the next few days you will amaze even those who know you well by the chances you take. The good news is every one of them will pay off. It’s one of those times when you just cannot lose.

TAURUS (April 21 - May 21):

Avoid taking shortcuts today. On the work front especially you need to apply yourself and show people in positions of power that you have what it takes to make a wonderful job of what you must do while following instructions to the letter.

GEMINI (May 22 - June 21):

It doesn’t matter if what you are planning is practical, it matters only that you believe in yourself and give 100 per cent at all times. Cosmic activity in your fellow air sign of Aquarius makes all – yes ALL – things possible for you now.

CANCER (June 22 - July 23):

If you poke your nose in where it isn’t wanted today it could end up getting bruised, so resist the urge to involve yourself in other people’s private affairs even if you think you have something valuable to offer. It’s not worth the backlash.

LEO (July 24 - Aug. 23):

There are so many changes in your life at the moment but you have what it takes to make a success of them all. Today’s Mercury-Pluto link will encourage you to believe you are correct in your assessment of what’s going on – and you are.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 - Sept. 23):

Mercury, your ruler, links with Pluto in the work area of your chart today, which among other things means you will be able to find clever ways to clear the backlog of jobs that has built up in recent weeks. Think fast, then act even faster.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23):

You may be a social animal by nature but there is a danger you could go too far over the next few days and exhaust both your energy and your finances, Some of those invitations you are getting are worthwhile, but many are not.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22):

If you expect things to stay as they are today you will be disappointed, so accept that the world around you is changing and find ways to change with it that benefit both yourself and the people you love. Always move with the times.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 - Dec. 21):

Your mind will be super-sharp today and anyone who lies to you or even bends the truth a little will be treated with the contempt they deserve. You have never been the sort to suffer fools gladly and you are not about to start now.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan. 20):

Sometimes quick decisions are the best decisions and that certainly seems to be the case at the moment. If you get a hunch that there is money to be made by acting quickly then go with it. Don’t waste time asking other people for their opinions.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19):

Others can worry about the state of the world if they want but you cannot afford to get bogged down in visions of doom and gloom. Today’s Mercury-Pluto link in your sign will make it easy to see the bigger picture, and it’s a pretty good one.

PISCES (Feb. 20 - Mar. 20):

This could be one of those days when you find it hard to get started but that need not be a bad thing. In fact, if you let others call the shots over the next 24 hours their decisions could benefit you in ways you had not anticipated.
