If Toronto was part of Canada, why would a forecast of five centimetres of snow (that’s about two inches) require a special weather statement from Environment Canada?
Really, Toronto? Five measly centimetres and you need a special “OMG! Snow!” notice from the weather folks? That’s too silly for parody.
I mentioned it to Elizabeth before starting this post, and she suggested that it’s another attempt to set up the media template for next year: “Look at the huge increase in special weather statements for the GTA over the last few years. Clearly this proves [global warming | climate change | climate chaos] is real.”
stop and think about it for a moment.
a) You are talking about the average Toronto driver
b) The shear number of Toronto drivers
c) The amount of space to put any snow.
It all adds up to one idiot drives too slow or goes to fast and has an accident and then everyone else has to wait. Then Emergency vehicles can’t get through… add a mere five cm of snow and One Snow Emergency. 🙂
