Environment Canada issued a warning about freezing drizzle on Monday night which was not lifted until after Tuesday morning’s workplace commute had ended.
The agency warned that, “surfaces such as highways, roads, walkways and parking lots may become icy and slippery.
“Freezing drizzle can produce thin, hard-to-detect layers of ice.”
