Winter Chaos Looms as Southern Ontario Braces for Messy Storm

Southern Ontario is preparing for a disruptive mix of snow, rain, and ice as a potent winter storm moves into the region. Forecasters warn that the system will bring rapidly changing conditions, making travel difficult and potentially hazardous throughout its duration.

The storm is expected to begin with accumulating snow, particularly in areas north and west of the GTA, before transitioning to freezing rain as warmer air pushes in aloft. This layer of ice could lead to slick roads, power line strain, and tree damage. Closer to Lake Ontario, the precipitation may shift to periods of cold rain, adding to the overall mess and reducing visibility.

Commuters are being urged to plan ahead, allow extra time, and stay alert for updated weather statements. With the storm delivering a little bit of everything, residents across the region should be prepared for a challenging stretch of winter weather.
