The Paramount Service teams in Burlington, Oakville, Milton, and Waterdown teams will be starting a full salt service run as of 1 am on December 20, 2024. We are forecasted to see our first big snowfall of the season potentially. Throughout the GTA, as of midnight on December 20, 2024, we are forecasted to start seeing some scattered flurries which are going to continue throughout the day on December 20 before forecasting to taper off around 9 pm on December 20, 2024. Temperatures throughout this system are below freezing sitting around -2°C with a low of -4° by 9 pm. We are forecasted to see potentially close to 6 cm of snowfall throughout this storm starting with scattered flurries with a few hours of light snow and ending with scattered flurries into the evening of December 20 beginning as of midnight on December 20 and going through until 9 pm. We are performing the salt run at the start of this weather system to help combat the snow that is falling throughout the overnight and early morning hours with an anticipation of another service run mid-afternoon on December 20. This service run is also being performed to help combat any slippery areas that may arise as temperatures are below freezing. We have an anticipated completion of this first initial service run as of 5 am on December 20, 2024. Please check back to this site for future service level updates as our Snow Management team continues to monitor this system.
