Icy roads slowed traffic in Vermont yesterday. (WPTZ image)We are in for a beautiful stretch of fall weather this week after the clouds and drizzle clear out today. Low pressure is pulling away from the New England coast this morning after drenching the area with 10-20mm of rain, snow and ice. Numerous accidents were reported yesterday along the Vermont/Quebec border and points south according to police after 2-5mm of ice was deposited on area roads. Atlantic Canada and Maine were hit even harder with strong winds, high surf and torrential rains, in some cases almost 300mm.
The system will pull away from the region today with slow clearing from the west and warmer temperatures. High pressure will dominate with sunshine and warm temperatures for the balance of the work week. Look for daytime highs close to 10C and overnight lows near 0C for the week in Montreal as well as eastern Ontario and northern New England. The next threat for rain will not be until next weekend.
