A winter storm warning for Toronto and parts of Ontario entered its second day on Sunday, as heavy snow is expected to further blanket the region.
Environment Canada forecasts 15 to 25 additional centimetres of snow in Toronto, with similar conditions also expected in parts of southwestern Ontario.
The same conditions are expected in southeastern Ontario, with as much as an added 20 to 30 centimetres of snow expected to come down in the Ottawa area.
The national weather agency says conditions are expected to rapidly deteriorate and rapidly accumulating snow of 3 to 5 cm per hour could make travel in some areas hazardous.
“Visibility may be suddenly reduced at times in heavy snow,” the agency wrote. “Consider postponing non-essential travel until conditions improve.”
The storm is expected to end Sunday evening, with the heaviest snow expected in the morning.
