Storm coming Tuesday
Workers will have just finished tidying away the traces of the last snowstorm Tuesday when we’ll be hit with another. But Monday will be very cold first.

Huge snowbanks don’t help the elderly get around very easily. And in Ville Saint-Laurent, many of the smaller streets have yet to be cleared from the last dump.
