Two in one
At the beginning of spring, the province of La Belle finds itself in an atmospheric trough. More wintry conditions will dominate until early next week. A system from the west will merge with another from the Gulf of Mexico. The second could provide the first with moisture, allowing for significant amounts of precipitation to fall on Saturday. The route will be monitored, but parts of Quebec will receive a wider area.
Cold and snowy
The combination of the two systems should produce significant amounts of snow even in the south of the province. In fact, a well-established cold front in Quebec will allow the mercury to stay below freezing for a few days. Saturday is generally colder with snow and cooler temperatures. In fact, in the morning, the mercury is expected to be -7 degrees Celsius in Montreal.
Possible width
More snow is likely in the Estrie and Beauce sectors, but this will depend on the path of the disturbance. Along with cooler temperatures, precipitation is sure to be solid. Hence, there is no initial composition. This dry ice should accumulate quickly. Even bigger Montreal can get ten centimeters. A more accurate estimate of the accumulations will be confirmed in the coming days.
