As Montrealers enjoy a brief break from the winter chill, Environment Canada warns that this weekend, the city is set to face yet another formidable winter storm, bringing "significant snowfall" to the region. The new storm, mirroring its predecessor earlier this week, is poised to blanket most of Quebec with a fresh layer of white, accompanied by strong winds and the challenge of blowing snow, according to a new special weather statement.
Just when you probably thought Montreal was getting a break from harsh winter, the weather is taking a sharp turn back to the cold. Mild temperatures across Canada in December were just a teaser. January will show its true colours with a colder, more typical winter grip.
While Montreal officially received its first snowstorm of the season in early December, it appears as if we won't be having another snowfall for quite a while, ruling out the possibility of a white Christmas in Montreal.
Montreal weather is known for its unpredictability, but the current forecast suggests a rare and prolonged period of heavy rain and potential flooding. The city, usually adept at handling swift weather changes, now faces a sustained downpour that may challenge even the most weather-hardened residents.
Montreal and surrounding areas are in the grips of a major storm, thanks to an unpredictable weather system. Originating from Western Canada, the system is expected to bring a mix of heavy rain and snow. The dramatic shift in weather could pose a challenge for commuters and city services due to rapidly changing conditions.
