UPDATE Saturday, March 1 2025: This Sunday, the wind chill is expected to reach -31, bringing exceptionally frigid temperatures for March. A mass of cold air from the north, combined with lingering winds on Sunday morning, will push the wind chill down to -30.
As the city recovers from the record-breaking back-to-back storms of last week, more snow is on the way.
A storm tracking in from northwestern Canada may trigger airline delays and flight cancellations at the major hubs in southeastern Canada.
According to The Weather Network, the latest forecast predicts snow beginning early Thursday, with up to 5 cm expected in the morning before transitioning into flurries throughout the afternoon and evening.
An additional 3 cm may accumulate overnight as temperatures drop to -8°C, feeling like -16°C with the wind chill.
Saturday morning will potentially deliver 10 cm during the day, with another 10 cm overnight.
By Sunday, Montreal could accumulate up to 25 cm.
With snow clearing efforts almost 80% complete, the Montreal snow-loading operation is said to take another 5 days—not taking into account the end-of-the-week storm.
Towering snow piles could get higher, with heavy snow a potential issue for roofs.
How to track Montreal’s snow removal?
There are three ways to track Montreal’s snow removal:
1. INFO-Neige MTL app (available on the App Store and Google Play)
2. Snow removal map: Consult this map to learn when your street will be cleared of snow. It presents planning for snow removal operations. The map also shows incentive parking lots, where you can park your car for free during snow removal operations.
Time Out Tip: there are more than 8,500 free overnight parking spots across the city in the event that you must move your car during street-clearing operations.
3. Progress of snow removal operations: Once the city starts clearing snow, this table charts the progress of snow-removal operations in each borough. Snow plowed to the sides of streets is transferred to trucks and taken to snow dumping sites. The table shows the number of kilometres of streets from which snow has been removed.
