Update May 4, 2024 at 9:00 p.m.
The start of the week will bode well before a turnaround in the situation. Forecasts.
In short :
-
A start to the week under the sun;
-
A mid-stream diet change;
-
A succession of two systems.
If you have the opportunity to choose your days of rest, the first of the coming week are the ones to favor: an anticyclone will bring sunshine and cause the thermometer to rise above seasonal values.
Lion’s start
Monday and Tuesday will be enough to put a smile on your face: it will be the return of the sun for the vast majority of regions of Quebec. This clearing, which will take place on Monday morning, will also be accompanied by remarkable mildness: the south of the province would cross the 20 degrees Celsius mark during these two days.
Remember that at this time of year, the maximum period of sunshine is 14 hours per day. It will therefore be a sunbath for the entire province, with the exception of the eastern sectors which will have to be satisfied with a few breakthroughs here and there.
Sunscreen will be important to take full advantage of it because UV radiation in May is similar to that in August.
Sheepskin finish
All good things come to an end: from Wednesday, gray weather will return to the west, south and center of the province. Two systems, coming from Colorado, will overlap during the second part of the week and could drop good amounts of rain in their path.
The arrival of gray weather also means the return of coolness: a maximum of 13 degrees is expected in Montreal on Wednesday, significantly lower than the maximum predicted the day before. Note that the seasonal normal is around 18 degrees Celsius for the city of a hundred bell towers.
