Snowfall warning issued for Toronto as city braces for record-breaking winter storm Toronto snowTO

The snowfall warning comes just hours after Environment Canada issued a special weather statement for the City of Toronto warning of the coming major precipitation event.that the storm"will likely have an impact on multiple commute times, with a healthy swath of snow associated with it."

"For some in southern Ontario, this could be the biggest snowfall event so far this season if the higher totals pan out. There is, however, still some uncertainty with the exact snowfall amounts," notes the report. Even if that snowfall falls well short of expectations, the coming storm will almost certainly unseat records for Jan. 25 snowfall.

The bar for this record is actually surprisingly low, with the record for snowfall on this date sitting at a measly 7.8 centimetres, a record that has gone unchallenged since 2005.

Again? That's what the weather (cough cough) specialists said the last 2 so-called (cough cough) uneventful winter storms. This better not be a dud...this better be the real deal. I want a massive snow storm.

Record breaking really? Should be record breaking, so Far in January. 11 cm of snow ❄️ actually average in January 30 cm…

So one thing I’ve noticed is that every storm is historic and record breaking, and then we get 7cm of snow. Stop with the Chicken Little reporting.

Doug Ford's team is already planning the photo ops

Stop with the fear. It’s just snow. Everything will be ok

We had 55cm last year! This is nothing!
