      Yes? Do you not see the ground covered in ice and snow and the strong winds kicking it up? Not exactly GOOD weather to be taking off and landing in

        Yeah it’s really unheard of in Toronto and unexpected this especially this time of year. Ice and snow. Looks like wind speed was about 30 to 40 miles per hour. Seems like they would know better than to attempt to land outside the parameters of the aircraft.

          I genuinely don’t know if you’re trying to be sarcastic.

          The linked article mentions the wind.

          You can’t estimate wind speed from this video.

          None of the passengers mentioned mechanical problems.

          It’s reasonable to conclude that the guy was filming the landing because the weather was particularly inclement.

          In conclusion:

          • Bad weather for planes

          • Average (good?) weather for Toronto as this time of year
