A major winter storm is set to move into southern Ontario on Friday and Global News meteorologist Anthony Farnell says many areas may see more snow than initially expected. “Our confidence is increasing on this being a major winter storm impacting a large swath of southern Ontario,” Farnell said. “Our snow forecast has also gone up with some areas now expected to receive up to 35 cm of snow.” Much of southern Ontario is under some sort of weather warning from Environment Canada.

Some areas north of Peterborough and Kingston are under snowfall warnings. Further south, winter storm warnings are in place, stretching from Peterborough and Kingston, to the Toronto area, Hamilton, and south to London.

Winter weather travel advisories are in place for places closer to Lake Erie and the Windsor, where more mixed precipitation is expected. “The snow and wind will combine to create near blizzard conditions late this evening with snowfall rates that could exceed 5 cm per hour,” Farnell said. “Thunder and lightning in the snow is also very likely later on Friday night.” The system will move into the region in the afternoon or early evening, depending on the location, with the last of the snow moving out by Saturday morning.

Farnell said the storm will likely be the biggest for the Greater Toronto Area since January 2022, when 50 cm fell. What's incredible about this storm is that it all basically falls in a 6 hour window.

Military’s new housing plan under fire over living allowance cut

Canadian Armed Forces is under fire for its plan to cut thousands of troops off a cost-of-living allowance without much notice.The military announced last week that about 7,700 Armed Forces members will no longer receive the top-up starting in July, when it will be replaced by a new housing benefit that commanders say will better assist those who need the most help.Social media and online forums dedicated to military personnel have been crackling with dissatisfaction over the plan, including the abbreviated timeline. Some are also unhappy with a new 10 per cent pay increase over four years, retroactive to 2021.Experts say the lack of notice speaks to larger problems around how the military treats its people, which they worry is sparking anger and frustration at a time when the Canadian Armed Forces is struggling with a recruitment and retention crisis.

Recovery from deadly Mississippi tornado tough for low-income residents

ROLLING FORK, Miss. - A massive tornado obliterated the modest one-story home that Kimberly Berry shared with her two daughters in the Mississippi Delta flatlands, leaving only a foundation and some random belongings — a toppled refrigerator, a dresser and matching nightstand, a bag of Christmas decorations, some clothing.During the storm Friday, Berry and her 12-year-old daughter huddled and prayed at a nearby church that was barely damaged, while her 25-year-old daughter survived in the hard-hit town of Rolling Fork, some 15 miles (24 kilometers) away.Berry shook her head as she looked at the remains of their material possessions. She said she’s grateful she and her children are still alive."I can get all this back.

Israel protests: Opposition to Netanyahu plan mounts as unions launch strike

TEL AVIV, Israel - Israel's largest trade union group launched a strike across a broad swath of sectors Monday, joining a surging protest movement against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's plan to overhaul the judiciary — a plan that is facing unprecedented opposition.The strike by the Histadrut umbrella group, which represents nearly 800,000 workers in health, transit and banking, among many other fields, could paralyze large parts of Israel's economy, which is already on shaky ground, ratcheting up the pressure on Netanyahu to suspend the overhaul.Departing flights out of the country's main international airport were grounded in protest, affecting thousands of travelers. Other sectors were also falling in line, with local governments, which manage pre-schools and other essential services, as well as a main doctors union announcing they would walk out.The growing resistance to the plan came hours after tens of thousands of people burst into the streets around the country in a spontaneous show of anger at Netanyahu’s decision to fire his defense minister after he called for a pause to the overhaul.

Israel sees protests after Netanyahu fires defense chief

JERUSALEM (AP) - Tens of thousands of Israelis poured into the streets of cities across the country on Sunday night in a spontaneous outburst of anger after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu abruptly fired his defense minister for challenging the Israeli leader's judicial overhaul plan.Protesters in Tel Aviv blocked a main highway and lit large bonfires, while police scuffled with protesters who gathered outside Netanyahu's private home in Jerusalem.The unrest deepened a monthslong crisis over Netanyahu's plan to overhaul the judiciary, which has sparked mass protests, alarmed business leaders and former security chiefs and drawn concern from the United States and other close allies.Netanyahu's dismissal of Defense Minister Yoav Gallant signaled that the prime minister and his allies will barrel ahead this week with the overhaul plan. Gallant had been the first senior member of the ruling Likud party to speak out against it, saying the deep divisions were threatening to weaken the military.RELATED: 'Chabelo,' beloved Mexican kid's comic Xavier López, dies at 88But as droves of protesters flooded the streets late into the night, Likud ministers began indicating willingness to hit the brakes.
