Get ready, Quebec! A winter storm is on the way, bringing snow and strong winds that could cause some trouble.
Montreal: Strong winds and heavy snow are about to hit southwestern Quebec, starting Monday afternoon. Gusts could reach up to 90 km/h, so hold onto your hats!
Environment Canada has issued special weather statements for Quebec and Ontario. They’re warning that this storm could lead to power outages and tricky travel conditions.
It’s a good idea to secure any outdoor items you have lying around. Those winds can really whip things up!
Plus, there’s a snow squall watch for much of western and central Quebec. Expect heavy snow to keep falling into Monday night, and those strong winds might break tree branches or toss around loose stuff.
As the storm rolls in, temperatures are set to drop. An arctic air mass is pushing through, making it feel even colder.
In northern areas like James Bay, a winter storm watch is in effect. They’re bracing for heavy snow, blowing snow, and low visibility.
Travel could get dangerous with the rapidly changing weather, so be careful out there. Near-zero visibility in snow squalls is no joke!
Drivers should take it easy and be ready for some rough conditions as the storm unfolds.
Now, about those temperatures in Montreal: they’re looking at highs of -1°C on Monday, but it’ll feel more like -11°C with the wind chill. Brr!
On Tuesday, it’s going to drop to -12°C in the afternoon, but it could feel like -23°C in the morning. Yikes!
Snow is expected on Wednesday, but don’t worry, sunshine is coming back on Thursday. More snow is likely on Friday too, with a high of -1°C.
