  • Story Text: Traffic in Toronto, Canada's largest city, and other cities of Ontario was snarled as storms dumped several inches of snow on Monday (January 17) and brought visibility to near zero.
    Locals could be seen trudging through deep snow and digging out their vehicles on Monday.
    An extreme weather warning is in effect for much of southeastern Canada, according to Environment Canada, and Toronto is forecast to receive as much as 2 feet (60 cm) of snow.
    More than a third of flights were canceled at Toronto Pearson airport, Canada's busiest, and some people were stuck in their vehicles, waiting for roads to be cleared. Buses were at a standstill and passing pedestrians were helping push cars up a street at the main commuter route in central Toronto, which appeared to not have been plowed.
