The Greater Toronto Area is expecting its first significant snowfall of the season with a special weather statement in effect for the region.
Environment Canada said a cold, Arctic wind will make its way across Southern Ontario beginning Monday.
Global News meteorologist Ross Hull said there are two parts to the “snow event.”
“Part one is a cold front which will slide through the GTA Sunday night — this is not expected to be a significant snow maker — however, with a heavy burst of snow in a short period of time along with gusty winds there could be some reduced visibility out on the roads tonight.”

Hull said there shouldn’t be more than 1 to 2 cm Sunday — the more significant snowfall will take place Monday evening beginning at 7 p.m., and go into Tuesday, with 5 to 10 cm expected.
