Environment Canada has issued a winter weather advisory for the Greater Toronto Area Thursday as it warns of freezing rain and up to 10cm of snow for the region.
A winter storm descending on much of southern Ontario is expected to bring freezing rain, snow and high winds to the GTA on Thursday, making for messy commutes and dangerous conditions.
City documents obtained by CBC Toronto are raising serious questions about how prepared Toronto is when it comes to snow-clearing, days before a major storm is set to hit.
Snow clearing equipment will be spread across Toronto today ahead of an anticipated winter storm that could drop as much as 10 centimetres of snow on the region.
The City of Toronto will be deploying salt trucks as soon as snow starts sticking to the ground this winter season, rather than waiting for snow to accumulate in previous years.
