This week's Montreal weather forecast might be a chilly wake-up call for those dreaming of May flowers. Environment Canada has issued a special weather statement, warning of a low-pressure system that will intensify over the next few days, bringing some serious snow to the city. The agency is advising that residents postpone non-essential travel.
Montreal received its fair share of snowfall this past weekend but the snowfall isn't over yet. Despite Eastern Canada receiving a rather mild start to the winter, it appears as if the weather forecast is now catching up to the colder season.
From the biggest to the smallest, the complete arsenal of Montreal's heavy machinery was deployed Tuesday to clean 10,000 kilometres of roads and sidewalks before Saturday.
'Tis really is the season, isn't it? Montreal has received its first major snowstorm of the winter season and this weekend's snowfall has been nothing short of magical.
Montreal welcomed its inaugural snowfall of the winter season this morning after nearly five centimetres of snow covered the streets and buildings of Montreal. Whether you were able to catch the snowfall at its peak or refused to look outside and accept our new reality – here are a few reminder shots that truly capture the magic of Montreal's very first snowfall of the year.
