Toronto could get almost a foot of snow tonight

Despite our warm, green Christmas, it looks like we'll finally get some snow in the city thanks to a winter storm that's set to begin at approximately 8 p.m. tonight.

According to Environment Canada, we could see up to 10 centimetres of snow accumulate along with wind gusts of up to 60 km/h. Around midnight, the precipitation is forecasted to switch to ice pellets; there's also a chance of freezing rain.

Though, don't expect the snow to stick around because it's supposed to rain tomorrow morning and into the afternoon.
