I think I see the problem...

Sector whiteout leading the pilots to forget to flare? Unlikely but maybe?
Other theories:
- ILS system interference due to other aircraft causing ILS to report slightly higher height than reality
- Wind shear
I reckon not because they are flying visually by the time they reach the minima. I do like the theory of them not seeing the runway with it being so white with snow, but then don't they have RADALT counting down their height?
Eh, speculation feels almost conspiratorial with what little info we have. The ntsb will figure out the last time the captain farted and whether that had any effect on the crash, so I'll just wait for their report.
Haha yeah true it could be anything. Luckily because everyone lived so there will be good information
Looking at it, fortunately it looks like there was just enough time for anyone without a seatbelt to put it on instinctively, before the plane rolled over.
A spectacular response by YYZ's emergency crew in snowy conditions.
Low vis, Sunny blue sky? Please explain.
My bad I had the timeline of events messed up. Edited.

Man, I don’t know why but I assumed it flipped forward to land upside down like that truck in The Dark Knight. Could not fathom how people survived. Still hard to imagine how nobody died, but I was picturing it so differently.
Seatbelts people!
That’s why we wear seatbelts in planes i guess
