A heavy snowstorm that hit the Greater Toronto Area last weekend completely affected the region. Strong winds and heavy snowfall were felt throughout the region. Roads became extremely slippery due to the snowstorm, making driving extremely dangerous. After several accidents were reported, police advised people not to take to the roads except for essential activities.
Many public transportation systems were delayed and some services were canceled. Several flights from Pearson International Airport were also affected by the bad weather. City crews are working around the clock to clear snow from major roads. Authorities have advised residents to clear sidewalks in front of their homes and check on their neighbors to make sure they are safe.
Meteorologists estimate that this is the heaviest snowfall of the season. They also warn that severe cold and snowfall are likely to continue in the coming days. Although the snowfall has severely affected people's lives, everyone is working cautiously for safety.
