Meteorologists say due to the “uncertain track of the weather system and the warm ground temperatures,” actual snowfall amounts could change.
John Parsons, the city’s division manager of roadside operations, tells Global News that sander and salter trucks are available and ready to deploy if need be, with a focus on main roads and bus routes.
Parsons says snowplows will also be available as a precaution, but he doesn’t anticipate deploying them, noting the warm ground temperature.
