The Canadian Ministry of Environment issued a warning about the weather conditions in the country, alerting about the upcoming “freezing rain”.

A warning for “freezing rain” was issued for a large part of the Ontario region in Canada. The Canadian Ministry of Environment released the warning for a wide area extending northwards, especially targeting the Greater Toronto area.

Officials urged drivers and pedestrians to be cautious due to the risk of icing, and warned about the potential negative impact of bad weather on transportation.

It was reported that the storm is expected to intensify in some areas over the weekend.
