Just some of the 60cm plus of snow that has fallen on the city this month is piled high in many parking lots.
The temperature has dropped to -19C this morning in Montreal after nosing above the freezing mark to 1C yesterday. As promised a strong cold front went through the city around 8pm last evening with temperatures rapidly dropping. Roads iced up quickly and numerous major accidents were reported in the metro area and across the southern half of the province. Over 15cm of snow fell on Montreal yesterday, with just a brief period of rain around the noon hour. Several hours of freezing rain were also observed at the airport.
After a sunny and cold day today we will begin a major warming trend that will send temperatures soaring to plus 2C Wednesday and plus 8C Thursday with some light rain before cooler air works into the region Friday night and Saturday with some snow showers.
