City crews are preparing to respond to snow and high-winds. Salting of roads and sidewalks will begin if snow starts to stick, and residents are encouraged to report fallen trees, branches or other hazards by contacting 311. People are also advised to prepare for possible power outages by charging devices, having flashlights ready, as well as clearing snow from sidewalks next to their property. Anyone who needs to travel during the storm should allow extra time, drive with caution, and consider using public transit. The City’s Warming Centres are open offering a warm place to rest and access meals and washroom facilities.
