#SantaBomb: Catchy term means messy winter weather ahead for Toronto
"Snowmageddon" is no longer the catchy phrase of choice for an upcoming winter snow storm. Environment Canada is forecasting a messy snow storm to hit the Toronto area on Christmas Eve and continue through Christmas Day. Because of its festive timing, the storm is being referred to as the SantaBomb, although Environment Canada is expecting it to be more wet and soggy instead of a creator of giant snow piles. Meteorologists are predicting flurries of snow and rain mixed with high winds and moderate temperatures.
If we're talking about Toronto and much of Southern Ontario, it looks like t is going to be a rain event in the days leading up to Christmas Day itself.

The term "SantaBomb" originated in the depths of Twitter and thrived when Toronto citizens began to complain about the weather heading their way. It originates from an actual meteorological phenomenon known as a "weather bomb" which describes the sudden intensification of a low pressure system - often with explosive onsets of precipitation.
Part of the reason we've seen it take on a life of its own on social media is the timing of this event. We know a lot of folks are going to be out on the roads on the days leading into Christmas. On Christmas Day and Boxing Day, a lot of folks will be flying out to warmer places or other parts of North America.
