For the most part, the weather hasn't been, well, so frightful in much of Canada. But things changed drastically post-Christmas as people in large swaths of the country woke up on Boxing Day Friday to some treacherous weather: heavy snowfall, ice pellets, fog and pretty much everything else Mother Nature could throw in. Ice pellets mixed in with snow and freezing rain were also on the weather menu. Environment Canada urged allowing extra time for travel for those heading out, citing "challenging" travel and reduced visibility "at times." Snowfall was expected to continue into Friday evening, with accumulations of eight to 12 centimetres.
