Residents of Montreal should prepare their umbrellas and winter boots as the city braces for a weekend of mixed precipitation. The forecast promises a classic, unpredictable pre-winter display of rain, snow, and everything in between.
A Detailed Look at the Weekend Forecast
The wobbly weather pattern begins on Friday. After morning fog patches dissipate, the day will see rain and periods of freezing drizzle. The high is expected to reach 5 degrees Celsius, creating potentially slippery conditions.
The evening brings a 60 percent chance of showers, which will transition overnight to a 40 percent chance of flurries. Overnight, the temperature is forecast to drop to a low of minus-1 degree Celsius.
Unsettled Conditions Continue into Sunday
Saturday is predicted to be mainly cloudy, with a potential for early morning flurries. While skies are expected to clear that night, the respite will be short-lived. Sunday is set to bring more precipitation, though the exact form remains uncertain—it could be snow, or it could be rain.
For those already tiring of the cold, there is a glimmer of hope on the horizon. Forecasts suggest that Montrealers might see double-digit temperatures by the middle of next week, offering a brief break from the wintery conditions.
A Glimpse of Holiday Cheer
Amidst the fluctuating forecasts, the community recently enjoyed a festive event. The CPKC Holiday Train made a stop at the MoWest train station in Montreal West on November 19, 2025. The event featured performances by Smash Mouth and JJ Wilde, bringing a dose of holiday spirit to the area before the winter weather fully sets in.
