Meanwhile in the U.S.
Snow continued to fall around parts of the Great Lakes region, where storm-weary residents who have plowed and shoveled for days faced the prospect of even greater accumulations.
Lake-effect snow fell on parts of western New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio that were already blanketed with a foot (0.3 metres) or more over the past four days. By Monday, more than 1.5 metres of snow had fallen east of Lake Ontario in the past four days, according to the National Weather Service. Snow was forecast through Tuesday in the largely rural area south of Buffalo.
In Ohio, the quaint village of Geneva-on-the-Lake had more than 1.2 metres of snow, and more is in the forecast through the rest of the week, according to the National Weather Service.
“At this point, it’s just annoying,” said Ryan Colby, who lives a snowball’s toss from Lake Erie in the Ohio village. “We’ve just been getting hit left and right with it. I’ve been getting up every couple hours and shoveling out the driveway and the porch just so we don’t get too, too buried again.”
Lake-effect snow warnings were in effect through Tuesday night in parts of Ohio, New York and Pennsylvania.
Winter storm warnings or advisories also were posted through Tuesday in Michigan, up and down the Lake Michigan coast. Farther inland, some communities canceled school.
In southwest Michigan, a crash involving about 14 passenger vehicles and three semi-trucks critically injured a driver and shut down Interstate 94 near Hartford in both directions during whiteout conditions on Monday, the Michigan State Police posted on the social platform X. More than a dozen “vehicle slide offs” had also been reported in the area, with police warning drivers to slow down.
