While we missed out on the most recent storm, the cold of the past month has allowed the more than 70cm of snow that has fallen on Montreal to remain on the ground and in piles around the city. It will warm up above freezing Saturday with some melting occurring. ValleyWX PicOur major northeast snowstorm is now well into Atlantic Canada with seas and winds expected to subside later today. Winds have been fierce in the region with a 104km/h gust at Miscou Island, NB and 152km/h at Grand Etang, NFLD and 165km/h at Wreckhouse, NFLD. Warnings remain in effect today as snow and wind continue. Over 40cm has fallen in Bathurst with more snow expected today across northeast New Brunswick and the Gaspe. This was the fourth storm in a month to cross the area.
The rest of us are in for a breezy and cold day with wind chills in the minus teens and some areas of blowing snow especially across Vermont and New York. We are then expecting a major pattern change towards the weekend with much above normal temperatures into New Years Eve and Day. Expect sunshine until Friday and then a few clouds and showers for the weekend with temperatures up to 4C expected.
It is cold this morning all the way south in Florida with 19F at Tallahassee and 23F at Jacksonville.
