After a week of freezing temperatures in Quebec, the sun will settle on Saturday before a even more lenient Sunday. Three snowy systems will then affect the province on Monday, potentially leaving up to 20 cm on the ground.
“Tomorrow [samedi]it will start to warm up, but very gradually, “said Kathleen Ménard-Leclerc, meteorologist at Environment Canada.
On Saturday promises to be sunny on Saturday in southwest Quebec with -9 ° C for Greater Montreal. The center of the province will also benefit the sun, while Quebec and Saguenay will suffer more biting winds.
The federal agency provides for alternating sun and clouds in East-du-Québec with more seasonal temperatures in most of the sectors, including the North Shore.
The West will remain more cloudy, while the rest of the province will see thinning under temperatures from -9 to -7 ° C.
Sweet Sunday
For Sunday, the gray weather will arrive with temperatures that will get closer to 0 ° C in the south, particularly in Montreal, while the other regions will remain cooler, but still comfortable.
Low snow showers are scheduled for the night of Saturday to Sunday, but three systems will receive the province successively, from the start of the week.
-10 cm from Monday
The first system will leave about 10 centimeters on Monday and Tuesday, under temperatures softer than normal. The second, expected Wednesday, could add 10 additional centimeters.

“We call it hollows. They come from the West and go through the Great Lakes in Ontario, “said the meteorologist.
On Wednesday, another episode of snow of ten centimeters will possibly receive Quebec. Cold temperatures should come back for the second half of next week.
“After the few consecutive snow episodes that we have had, the temperatures will relapse,” says Mme Ménard-Leclerc.
