Toronto could see its first significant snowfall this weekend

Special Weather Statement issued for Toronto — TORONTO, ON., Nov. 21, 2020 — Hopefully everyone has installed their snow tires, as Environment Canada has issued a weather statement for significant snowfall expected Sunday into Sunday night right across Southern Ontario.

Snow is expected to begin Sunday morning. 5 to 10 cm of snow is possible before the snow tapers off overnight.

Travel is expected to be impacted due to moderate to heavy snow. Motorists should be prepared for winter weather driving conditions.

This is a result of a Colorado Low that will track from Ohio towards the St. Lawrence River Sunday into Monday.

There is still some uncertainty in model guidance as to the exact track of the low and the axis of heaviest snow. Environment Canada will continue to monitor the situation and update Special Weather Statements as newer data becomes available.

Please continue to monitor alerts and forecasts issued by Environment Canada. To report severe weather, send an email to ONstorm@canada.ca or tweet reports using #ONStorm.
