Arctic front update

The coldest weather of the winter and maybe even last winter as well is set to move into Eastern Ontario and western Quebec later today and tonight. The front will blast across Kemptville late today with temperatures plunging more than 10 degrees in the first hour or two. After a high near 0C look for lows to bottom out between -25 and -30C. Winds will be strong gusting over 50km/h producing dangerous wind chills and blowing snow. The snow will be fairly light most of the day, but expect a heavy burst along the front. From 5-10cm is expected in most regions. Radar is showing steady light snow across the region at this hour and it will continue to spread east towards Montreal. It will be an unsettled, breezy and frigid week with some snow by the weekend. Plan your travel accordingly and be prepared for dangerous cold temperatures.
