The Town of Whitchurch-Stouffville, Ontario, issued a major weather alert on March 25, 2026, after a warning from Environment Canada predicted between 10 and 15 centimetres of snow. This notice warns the community that road conditions may change quickly and travel could become difficult throughout the day.
By making this official declaration, the Town of Whitchurch-Stouffville is signaling that it may take crews longer than usual to clear local roads and sidewalks. This move follows provincial rules that allow the municipality to extend its maintenance timelines while workers deal with the heavy snowfall.
Residents are asked to avoid driving unless it is necessary to help snow plows and sanding trucks move through the community safely. To keep streets clear for equipment, the town also reminds drivers that street parking is not allowed between 2:00 AM and 6:00 AM until the end of March 2026.
Families can see where snow removal teams are working in real-time by using the Track My Plow website. While crews focus on the roads, the Memorial Park Skating Trail has been closed for the day to undergo unexpected maintenance work.
Local utility companies are monitoring services for any potential disruptions caused by the storm. Further updates and safety contact information for services like power and gas can be found on the town’s emergency information page.
