Special weather statements from Environment Canada warn places like Oakville and Hamilton could wind up with 70 centimetres, thanks to a combination of lake effect squalls and the storm itself.
At least five centimetres had fallen there by the dinner hour and things were just - you should pardon the expression - warming up.
Just how big is this monster? Consider this: when it just started snowing in T.O., it was still coming down all the way into Chicago, where a blizzard warning remained in effect.
And this disturbance is packing just about everything - snow, ice, strong winds, bitterly cold temperatures, the possibility of whiteouts and the near certainty that everything you just shovelled off your driveway will blow back again in mere minutes.
Experts don't expect it to end until sometime late Wednesday. And that means the morning commute from hell just about everywhere by sunrise.
grr, oakville. grr.
