Due to icy road conditions, the Toronto Transit Commission says it is experiencing “major delays”. Heavy rain, ice pellets, and snow created messy road conditions in the GTA on Thursday. Flooding has already damaged dozens of homes in a Brampton neighbourhood, which forced officials to evacuate the area.
A snowfall warning was in effect for Toronto but ended on Friday morning, as stated by Environment Canada. The agency said Toronto could see between 15 and 20 centimetres of snowfall during the weather event. While snow tapered off on Friday morning, conditions are still very slippery in the GTA.
The national weather agency said “Be prepared to adjust your driving with changing road conditions. Rapidly accumulating snow could make travel difficult over some locations, Visibility may be suddenly reduced at times in heavy snow… Surfaces such as highways, roads, walkways and parking lots may become difficult to navigate due to accumulating snow.”
