Significant Weather Events

An Ontario municipality can declare a significant weather event when a weather hazard is approaching or occurring and has the potential to pose a significant danger to users of the highways and sidewalks over which they have authority.

This declaration suspends the standard timelines required for municipalities to meet their winter maintenance objectives until the municipality declares the significant weather event has ended.

A significant weather event can occur when present or forecast weather includes one or more of the following conditions:

  • Significant snow accumulation during a 24-hour period
  • Ice formation that occurs without warning from the weather forecast
  • High winds leading to blowing snow and large snow drifts
  • Freezing temperatures when de-icing operations will not be effective

In the event of a significant weather event, please check for official information from Loyalist Township on our website or on our social media channels.

For detailed information on the declaration of significant weather events, you can review the Ontario Regulation 239/02.
