Ontario Provincial Police Sgt. Kerry Schmidt said there have been no major collisions on GTA highways so far this morning. He noted that roads are “snow-covered, wet and sloppy.”

“Obviously the work is ongoing with keeping those highways clear and salted,” he told CP24.

The Toronto District School Board says some bus routes have been impacted by weather-related delays but buses are still running this morning.

School bus delays have also been reported elsewhere in the GTA, including the regions of York, Peel, Halton, and Durham.

In a news release, the City of Toronto said winter operations may lead to some traffic delays.

“Toronto is expecting snow beginning early Monday morning and continuing throughout the day into Tuesday morning. Snowfall is expected to peak during the morning rush hour,” the news release read.

Environment Canada says there may be “reduced visibility” at times this morning in heavy snow.

“Although modest snowfall amounts are expected, the timing of this snow will be problematic. Because the holiday season is now behind us, and traffic patterns should be closer to normal, this snow is expected to have more of an impact on the morning commute,” the weather advisory read.

“Travel will likely be challenging. Roads and walkways will likely be difficult to navigate due to accumulating snow. There may be a significant impact on rush hour traffic. Visibility will likely be reduced at times. Allow extra time for travel.”

Snow is expected to taper off this afternoon but could transition to freezing drizzle, Environment Canada said.

Toronto is expected to see a high of 1 C but it will feel like -12 in the morning.
