One of the rare storms recently. Snowfall Warnings for 6-10" for most of Southern Ontario and a Winter Storm Warning for Niagara, Haldimand, Hamilton. Calling for 8-12" where I live in the warning with up to 40mph gusts. Now Im getting pretty pumped. 

 

Winter storm likely Monday into Tuesday giving 20 to 30 cm of snow.

Two rounds of precipitation are expected with this storm. The first one is expected to begin early Monday morning with 5 to 10 cm likely by afternoon.

The precipitation may diminish in intensity during the afternoon, but another round of even heavier snow is expected to move in Monday evening and persist until Tuesday morning. An additional 10 to 20 cm is likely. Northeast winds gusting to 60 km/h will result in very poor visibility in blowing snow.

Even higher amounts may be possible in some locations due to extra moisture coming off Lake Ontario. Locally higher amounts may also occur on the higher elevations of the escarpment.

Consider postponing non-essential travel until conditions improve. Surfaces such as highways, roads, walkways and parking lots may become difficult to navigate due to accumulating snow. Visibility may be suddenly reduced at times in heavy snow.

The Metric System makes so much goddamn sense.

Who cares? It’s gonna snow. That’s all that matters. If we get 9”, 11”, or 15” I’ll be stoked any way you slice it. This pattern is awesome! 

This. We could have back to back synoptic Winter Storm Warnings within 2 days of each other. That’s awesome!

I had this in February of 2010 living in Philadelphia. Greatest week of snow of my life!
