As Canadians we talk about the weather relentlessly, I just talk about it a little more! I hope to provide useful information to my family, friends and all those who simply enjoy talking about the weather. While I try to include information of interest from all over North America, my primary region of concern is the St. Lawrence Valley of Quebec, Ontario, and New York, as well as our neighbouring regions. This Blog is dedicated to my late father for inspiring my interest in weather.

Wind Chill Warning
Depending which side of the International border you live on you are under either a wind chill warning or advisory. It really means the same thing, it is bloody cold out there. Montreal is currently -19C or -2F at 3:30 pm. We are looking at overnight lows between -28C and -32C across southern Quebec and into eastern Ontario. With a light breeze forecast, wind chill temperatures will approach -40C. We will warm slightly to -20C on Monday under sunny skies. The last time Montreal was this cold was January 2009 when we dropped to -28.3C on the 16th. The record low for tonight for Montreal was -30.6C set in 1976, so we have a chance at that one. The threat for a storm later in the week has diminished at this time as high pressure may keep the storm off the coast. We are expecting a little light snow from a clipper system on Tuesday.
