On Time
Paramount Snow Management teams began a full salt service run at 1:00 AM on March 1, 2026, following a weather episode that began around 10:00 PM on February 28. Across all regions of the GTA, reports indicate 1–3 cm of snowfall during this event. With temperatures remaining well below freezing, all teams were deployed to help combat the snow that fell and reduce the risk of slippery conditions.
Regional Service Updates
Burlington, Oakville, Milton & Waterdown
-
Start Time: 1:00 AM
-
Accumulation: 1–3 cm
-
Temperatures: –5°C to –6°C, daytime high near –8°C
A full salt service run is being performed to help combat the snowfall and prevent slippery areas from forming.
Anticipated completion: 5:00 AM
Temperature & Salt Effectiveness
It is important to note that traditional white road salt begins to lose effectiveness at temperatures below –7°C.
At these temperatures:
-
The melting process slows significantly
-
Salt requires more time and traffic movement to activate
-
Surfaces may remain snow-covered or icy longer despite application
-
Additional monitoring may be required
With several regions experiencing temperatures at or below this threshold, melting action may be slower than during milder conditions.
Salt Supply Update — Southern Ontario
Southern Ontario continues to experience a significant regional salt shortage due to sustained winter demand, repeated storm systems, and ongoing supply chain constraints. Municipalities continue to receive priority allocation, which has tightened supply availability for private snow management contractors across the GTA and surrounding regions.
Current challenges include:
-
Limited and inconsistent depot inventories
-
Daily allocation caps
-
Sudden supplier depletion without notice
-
Increasing difficulty securing overnight supply
Salt is becoming increasingly scarce to locate and secure. Many suppliers are running low or temporarily out of product. In some instances, contractors are required to travel outside their immediate service areas to obtain material, increasing operational strain and impacting timelines.
Paramount Snow Management continues to work diligently with multiple suppliers across Southern Ontario to secure product. However, availability remains unpredictable, and material must be deployed strategically and responsibly to ensure coverage across all properties while prioritizing safety.
We appreciate your continued understanding as we navigate these ongoing supply challenges.
Teams will continue monitoring all sites throughout the day as temperatures remain well below freezing.
