After azure skies over the weekend, the weather will turn gray early in the week with some snow or rain showers but accompanied by what is now spring-like mildness across much of Quebec.
Cloud cover, which will dominate the province’s southwestern sectors, could be accompanied by some accumulation in Abitibi and Outaouais and light snow mixed with rain in Greater Montreal.
Central Quebec will be spared precipitation, although clouds are expected to be dense, with a 60% chance of showers in Quebec and Estrie, where mercury will be generous as highs of 4 degrees are expected.
Elsewhere in the east of the province, morning skies will be partly clear before heavy clouds roll in on Tuesday and Wednesday if mercury doesn’t go haywire in Bas-Saint-Laurent and the Côte-Laurent. North, according to the federal agency.
Environment Canada is also forecasting snow or rain in southern Quebec on Tuesday, but not enough to whip a cat, while temperatures will remain generally positive for the rest of the week.
