										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A late-April cold snap has led to a <strong>yellow-level frost advisory</strong> across Toronto and the GTA. The advisory was issued at 9:10 a.m. on Thursday. Residents are urged to take precautions for their plants.</p>
<p>Temperatures are expected to dip near or below freezing overnight into Friday morning. Environment Canada predicts patchy frost likely under clearing skies as cold air settles in.</p>
<p>The advisory covers a wide stretch of southern Ontario, including municipalities such as Hamilton, Mississauga, Brampton, and Durham Region.</p>
<p>Officials report a moderate impact level with high confidence in the forecast. Jessie Uppal from Environment Canada noted that frost is typically experienced in the GTA during the last week of April and first week of May.</p>
<p>Residents are advised to cover vulnerable plants or bring potted ones indoors. This is especially important in frost-prone or low-lying areas where temperatures can fall more quickly.</p>
<p>The weather forecast indicates Thursday&#8217;s high will only reach 11°C with scattered showers. Friday&#8217;s high is expected near 10°C, with a low around 1°C and potential for flurries.</p>
<p>This chilly start to May will see daytime highs struggling to reach the low teens. The region is preparing for an unusual cold spell as spring progresses.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2></h2>
<p>Environment Canada has issued a special weather statement for several regions in Ontario due to significant snowfall, with local amounts expected to reach between <strong>4 to 10 cm</strong> in areas like Newmarket. Snow is anticipated to develop northeast of Lake Superior and move southeast toward Greater Sudbury.</p>
<p>In Toronto, residents are bracing for what could be the last snowfall of the winter this week, with temperatures predicted to drop to <strong>minus five degrees Celsius</strong>. Snow is expected to hit the area Monday evening and continue until early Tuesday afternoon, impacting the Tuesday morning commute.</p>
<p>“Hopefully this is the last of the snow,” said meteorologist Anthony Farnell, reflecting the sentiments of many who have endured fluctuating temperatures this season. Toronto has seen highs over 20 °C followed by sudden drops and snow.</p>
<p>Travelers are advised to prepare for quickly changing and deteriorating conditions, as significantly reduced visibility is a primary hazard during heavy snow. The snowfall may create difficult travel conditions, especially during peak commute hours.</p>
<p>Local snowfall amounts of <strong>4 to 8 cm</strong> are expected in various regions, with the potential for more in localized areas. Drivers and commuters should remain cautious and stay updated on weather conditions as the storm progresses.</p>
<p>Details remain unconfirmed regarding the exact timing and impact of the snowfall, but authorities are closely monitoring the situation to provide updates as necessary.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>The numbers</h2>
<p>Calgary experienced a heavy wet snowstorm on Thursday morning, prompting Environment and Climate Change Canada to issue a special weather statement. The forecast predicts up to <strong>20 centimetres</strong> of snow, creating hazardous conditions across the city.</p>
<p>By noon on Thursday, Calgary police reported at least <strong>163 crashes</strong> on city streets, resulting in <strong>22 injuries</strong>. The situation worsened as the day progressed, with a total of <strong>229 crashes</strong> recorded from midnight to 4 p.m., including <strong>23 injuries</strong>.</p>
<p>A snowfall warning had been issued ahead of the storm, predicting between <strong>10 and 20 centimetres</strong> of snow accumulation. Chris McGeachy, a spokesperson for Environment Canada, noted, &#8220;(It’s) no surprise. March and April are high accumulation months, whether it is snow or rain.&#8221; This historical context highlights the region&#8217;s susceptibility to severe winter weather during this time of year.</p>
<p>The storm system is expected to move out of the Calgary area around dinnertime on Thursday, but the aftermath of the snowstorm is already being felt. As the snow begins to settle, Calgary&#8217;s temperatures are forecasted to rise to around <strong>8 C</strong> on Friday and <strong>5 C</strong> on Saturday, likely causing significant melting.</p>
<p>In light of the treacherous conditions, McGeachy urged residents to exercise caution: &#8220;We just want to remind people: leave plenty of time to get to where you need to go, plenty of space between your vehicle and the vehicle in front.&#8221; This advice is crucial as drivers navigate the slick roads.</p>
<p>Looking ahead, flurries are forecasted again for Sunday, with potential for additional snowfall. Kevin Stanfield commented, &#8220;One snow event down, a couple more to go perhaps, and they start again this weekend.&#8221; This suggests that residents should remain vigilant as winter weather continues to impact the area.</p>
<p>As April progresses, the calendar may indicate spring, but as McGeachy remarked, &#8220;Calendar might say April; unfortunately, winter&#8217;s still here for a couple more days.&#8221; Details remain unconfirmed regarding the extent of future snowfall, but the current storm serves as a reminder of Calgary&#8217;s unpredictable weather patterns.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2></h2>
<p>A significant snowstorm is forecasted to impact Regina and surrounding areas, with Environment Canada warning of up to <strong>15 cm</strong> of snow expected to accumulate. The storm is anticipated to begin late Sunday evening and continue into Tuesday morning, severely affecting travel and daily routines.</p>
<p>The heaviest snowfall is predicted for the Moose Jaw and Regina regions, where totals could reach between <strong>10 to 15 cm</strong>. Other areas may see <strong>5 to 10 cm</strong> of snow, with conditions worsening as temperatures remain below freezing throughout the storm.</p>
<p>Meteorologist James Colangelo stated, &#8220;It looks like the Moose Jaw–Regina area will probably be the heaviest hit with storm total snowfalls in the 10 to 15 cm range.&#8221; He added that temperatures will stay below zero, ensuring that precipitation will fall entirely as snow.</p>
<p>Winds are also expected to exacerbate conditions, with gusts reaching up to <strong>50 km/h</strong> on Monday. This combination of heavy snow and strong winds could significantly reduce visibility and create slippery road conditions, impacting the Monday morning commute.</p>
<p>Motorists are advised to check road conditions before traveling, as major highways, including Highway 1, may be affected by the snowfall. Special weather statements have already been issued for the unusual weather conditions.</p>
<p>As the storm approaches, residents are urged to allow extra time for travel, as snow will disrupt commute times across Saskatchewan and Manitoba. Colangelo emphasized the need for caution, stating, &#8220;Allow extra time for travel as snow will interrupt commute times in parts of Saskatchewan and Manitoba on Monday.&#8221; </p>
<p>Snow is expected to taper off early Tuesday morning, but the full extent of the storm&#8217;s impact remains to be seen. Details remain unconfirmed as the situation develops.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Reaction from the field</h2>
<p>Calgary is grappling with severe disruptions as heavy snowfall blankets the city, prompting police to advise motorists against travel due to hazardous winter road conditions. The storm has unleashed a relentless snowfall rate of 3 to 5 cm per hour in various parts of Calgary, leading to chaos on the roads.</p>
<p>By the end of the storm, Calgary International Airport recorded approximately 16 cm of snow, contributing to a total of 159 reported crashes across the city, with 27 of those resulting in injuries. The situation has escalated to a point where Environment Canada issued a snowfall advisory, highlighting the urgency of the conditions.</p>
<p>The north part of Calgary experienced the heaviest snowfall, while the south remained relatively dry, creating stark contrasts in weather conditions across the city. &#8220;I think the intensity is what really sets it off,&#8221; said Terri Lang, a meteorologist, emphasizing the unusual severity of the storm.</p>
<p>As March is statistically the snowiest month for Calgary, residents are reminded that winter is not yet over. Lang noted, &#8220;Most people don’t think about this but March actually, statistically, gets the most amount of snow during the winter from November to April.&#8221; This historical context underscores the potential for further snowfall, as another storm system is forecasted to bring an additional 5 to 8 cm of snow by Thursday morning.</p>
<p>Local residents have expressed their surprise at the sudden change in weather. Jabier Abusdos remarked, &#8220;The couple of past days were so nice&#8230; I was like what is going on?&#8221; This sentiment reflects the abrupt transition from mild weather to winter conditions that many Calgarians are experiencing.</p>
<p>Authorities continue to monitor the situation closely, with police and emergency services on high alert for any further incidents. The combination of heavy snowfall and icy conditions has made travel treacherous, and residents are urged to stay informed and exercise caution.</p>
<p>As the storm continues to impact Calgary, details remain unconfirmed regarding the full extent of the damage and the number of injuries. With more snow on the horizon, the city braces for the possibility of continued disruptions and hazardous conditions.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2></h2>
<p>Ottawa has recently experienced a record-setting winter for snow accumulation, but the weather is taking a new turn. A yellow advisory for freezing drizzle has been lifted for Ottawa-Gatineau and most of eastern Ontario, yet a new advisory has been issued for a wide swath of Northern Ontario, including the Greater Sudbury area.</p>
<p>The advisory warns that light ice build-up will make surfaces icy and slippery. Freezing drizzle is expected to leave a thin glaze on untreated surfaces, posing risks for pedestrians and drivers alike. Environment Canada describes the advisory as &#8216;moderate, localized and/or short-term&#8217; with hazardous weather that may cause damage, disruption, or health impacts.</p>
<p>As of 3:07 a.m. on March 22, the freezing drizzle advisory was in effect, and it is expected to impact travel and daily activities. Cities such as Kingston, Belleville, and Quinte West remain outside the advisory but are under a special weather statement for freezing rain or freezing drizzle.</p>
<p>Environment Canada has issued a warning urging residents to be very careful if walking or driving, emphasizing that icy surfaces will likely form and could be difficult to detect. The impact level of the advisory is moderate, and the forecast confidence is high, indicating that conditions may not improve quickly.</p>
<p>Travelers are advised to maintain slower speeds and exercise caution until conditions improve. The high temperature for the day is expected to hover around 0°C, further complicating the situation.</p>
<p>As the situation develops, officials continue to monitor the weather closely. Observers are encouraged to stay updated on the latest advisories and take necessary precautions to ensure safety.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Who is involved</h2>
<p>In recent days, residents in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) and Sudbury had been experiencing relatively mild winter conditions, with no significant weather events on the horizon. However, this calm atmosphere has shifted dramatically as Environment Canada has issued a winter storm warning, indicating that severe weather is imminent.</p>
<p>The decisive moment came when forecasts predicted strong winds and substantial rainfall. From Sunday through Tuesday morning, residents in the GTA are warned of wind gusts reaching up to <strong>70 kilometres per hour</strong>. This has raised concerns about potential power outages and hazardous travel conditions. Environment Canada has advised residents to avoid travel if possible, as the strongest wind gusts may coincide with a cold front passage on Monday morning.</p>
<p>In Sudbury, the situation is equally concerning. The area is currently under a rain warning, with expected rainfall amounts between <strong>25 to 50 mm</strong>. As temperatures rise above freezing, freezing rain is expected to transition to rain, leading to water pooling on roads and in low-lying areas. This could further complicate travel and safety for residents.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, Iowa faces its own severe weather challenges. Blizzard warnings have been issued for nearly the entire state, with forecasts predicting wind gusts of <strong>50 to 60 mph</strong>. These conditions are expected to create blizzard-like scenarios, making travel treacherous or even impossible at times. In central Iowa, snowfall is anticipated to reach <strong>2 to 4 inches</strong>, with reports of up to <strong>6 inches</strong> already noted in some northern areas.</p>
<p>The impact of these weather warnings is significant for all parties involved. Residents are urged to prepare for potential disruptions, including power outages and hazardous travel conditions. The warnings serve as a reminder of the unpredictability of winter weather and the importance of staying informed.</p>
<p>Experts emphasize the need for caution during such weather events. The National Weather Service has reiterated the dangers associated with blizzard conditions, advising residents to stay indoors and avoid unnecessary travel. They highlight that the combination of strong winds and heavy snowfall can lead to whiteout conditions, making navigation extremely difficult.</p>
<p>As the winter storm unfolds, communities across the affected regions are bracing for the impacts. Local authorities are preparing to respond to emergencies, and residents are encouraged to stay updated on weather developments. Details remain unconfirmed regarding the extent of the storm&#8217;s impact, but the warnings indicate that significant weather changes are on the way.</p>
<p>In summary, the winter storm warning has shifted expectations for residents in the Greater Toronto Area, Sudbury, and Iowa. With strong winds, heavy rainfall, and blizzard conditions anticipated, safety and preparedness are paramount as communities face the challenges of winter weather.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Current Road Conditions in New Brunswick</h2>
<p>New Brunswick is currently experiencing hazardous road conditions following a significant snow and ice storm that affected the region. As of Thursday morning, most schools in the province were closed due to the adverse weather.</p>
<p>By 6 a.m., highways across New Brunswick were reported to be partly to fully covered with snow, ice, and slush, creating dangerous driving conditions. Environment Canada issued a yellow warning for hazardous winter conditions, particularly in northern New Brunswick, where freezing rain mixed with ice pellets was forecast to continue until early Thursday afternoon.</p>
<p>In Kent County, the storm had a substantial impact, leaving 1,031 customers without power as of 1:30 p.m. This has raised concerns about safety and accessibility for residents in the area.</p>
<p>Environment Canada warned that &#8220;roads and walkways will likely be difficult to navigate,&#8221; urging residents to consider postponing non-essential travel and outdoor activities until conditions improve. The freezing rain was expected to transition to rain on Thursday morning, but the impact on road conditions remained uncertain.</p>
<p>Fredericton Transit also faced disruptions, with all routes delayed by one hour as of 6:06 a.m. This delay reflects the broader challenges faced by public transportation services amid the inclement weather.</p>
<p>As the day progressed, the situation on the roads continued to evolve. Reports indicated that slippery conditions were prevalent, leading to vehicle incidents, including one on Highway 5 between Vavenby and Avola. Emergency response teams were deployed to manage the situation, highlighting the ongoing risks associated with travel in these conditions.</p>
<p>Traffic was notably blocked northbound on Highway 5 just north of Vavenby, further complicating travel plans for many. Road conditions on this highway between Barriere and Blue River were also noted to have slippery sections, emphasizing the need for caution.</p>
<p>Local authorities and Environment Canada continue to monitor the situation closely, providing updates as conditions change. Residents are advised to stay informed and exercise caution when navigating the roads.</p>
<p>Details remain unconfirmed regarding the full extent of the storm&#8217;s impact, but the situation underscores the importance of preparedness during severe weather events.</p>
