Get ready to grab your umbrellas, Montreal! The week is kicking off with a splash as heavy rain is set to drench the city on Tuesday. Environment and Climate Change Canada has issued a warning for Montreal and surrounding areas, cautioning residents about the possibility of significant rainfall, with amounts ranging from 40 to 60 millimetres. This downpour could result in water accumulating on roads and in low-lying spots.
The rainy spell is attributed to a warm front lingering over the region, linked to a low-pressure system inching its way southwards. Rainfall is expected to start on Monday, persisting through the night with temperatures ranging from 17°C to 6°C. Tuesday will see cooler temperatures, hovering around 9°C, with heavy downpours at times and gusty winds up to 40 km/h from the northeast.
As we move towards midweek, Wednesday will remain overcast with a slight chance of showers and temperatures reaching 11°C. But brace yourselves for some relief, as sunshine is set to make a comeback on Thursday, with a high of 13°C. However, the reprieve will be short-lived as rain is forecasted to make a comeback on Friday, with temperatures climbing to 16°C.
Looking ahead to the weekend, expect a cool down. Saturday will offer a mix of sun and clouds, with temperatures peaking at 6°C and dropping to minus-1°C overnight. Sunday will bring similar conditions, with a high of 10°C.
