Much of eastern and central Canada was battered by a fierce winter storm that brought icy cold winds and as much as 50 centimetres of snow over the weekend.

Up to 90 km/h in some areas caused reduced visibility in some areas, causing transport disruptions.

The storm has caused some flight cancellations and delays at airports across the affected regions, including Montreal and Quebec City.
