Relentless hail and thunderstorms viewed from our Toronto Global newsroom. #ONStorm @Ross_Hull
Holy hail! Left my desk at Global News HQ in North York to come up to our resources unit where the hail is pounding on the ceiling. Lots of lightning and thunder too. This is the loudest Iโve heard in the studio and newsroom it in my 39 years at Global .#ONStorm @AnthonyFarnell

Heavy, fluffy, blowing snow, and cold having a significant impact on a.m. commute for GTA and southern Ontario. Most snow so far this season for TO - it's not often you see TO in the bullseye for the heaviest amounts - 20-30 cm possible! Snow eases by ~2 p.m. for GTA #onstorm
My four-pawed measuring device sniffed 8 cm in southwest Scarborough (non-paved surfaces) close to the 9 cm reported so far at Pearson. Snow easing now but with temps. well below freezing overnight into Mon. a.m. roads/sidewalks will be slippery! @CanadianBrosEh #onstorm
