The City of Toronto has declared what it calls a "major snowstorm condition" to ensure its crews can remove the snow on city streets left by a winter storm on Monday. Anyone who parks on a designated snow route during a major snow event could be fined up to $200. A mother and son walk down a residential street in Scarborough after the winter storm. In comparison, a winter storm warning means a forecast of more than 25 centimetres of snow within 24 hours, along with other criteria, such as blowing snow and reduced visibility, he said. The winter storm was due to a strong low-pressure system tracking south of the Great Lakes, Environment Canada said.
