Weather in Quebec: the warm weather returns before the arrival of the cold

The week ends with weather that will be generally cloudy with a few flakes throughout Quebec, while warm weather temporarily settles in certain areas despite strong winds.

For this Friday, in the southwest, clouds will predominate with temperatures of -4 degrees, except in Abitibi-Témiscamingue where 2 centimeters of snow are expected at -7 degrees.

The weather will also be cloudy with a 40% chance of snow showers in the center of the province, while temperatures will be stable at -5 degrees, according to Environment Canada.

The same scenario is anticipated in the areas of Eastern Quebec where the mercury will not go crazy, since the maximum temperatures will be around -5 or -6 degrees.

For the first day of the weekend, the mild weather returns with positive temperatures in most of Quebec, except in Abitibi-Témiscamienne where it will be -15 degrees.

But this mild spell will be accompanied by sometimes heavy snow showers and strong winds in certain areas which will be swept by gusts of 50 km/h.

In Montreal, the federal agency anticipates 2 centimeters of snow, while temperatures will be above freezing, waiting to fall again on Sunday.
