If there’s one good thing you can say about the storm that’s going to make a mess of things in the GTA this weekend, it’s this: at least it happened on a weekend. There won’t be any rush hour traffic on Saturday as people seek to get to their jobs, schools are out, and with hundreds of thousands already gone for March Break at the Airport, there will be fewer cars on the road overall.
And while there will be a lot fewer events going on, you can expect cancellations to pile up as fast as the snow. We’re looking for your no-go notices and will list them here on CityNews.ca as we get them. Submit yours to our storm desk at storm@citynews.ca and we’ll get them online as quickly as possible.
