Wild fall weather: What’s next after heat records in the east, snow in the west?

All-time high temperatures have been recorded for the month of November in parts of Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Newfoundland and Labrador.

It has been an unusual fall season for Canada, with some parts of the country experiencing “summer-like” conditions in contrast to other provinces seeing early winter snowstorms.

For people in eastern Canada, it was a warm weekend, with record-high temperatures recorded for the month of November.

In the capital city Ottawa on Saturday, mercury levels hit 23.4 C, breaking an 84-year record for the warmest Nov. 5 since records began, according to Environment Canada.

The Greater Toronto Area (GTA) set a new all-time November high Saturday of 25.2 C recorded at Pearson international airport, as did Hamilton, with 24.7 C.

Meanwhile, Montreal shattered its previous November record, experiencing the city’s hottest day for the month on Saturday as the temperature rose to 24.3 C.

New November records were also set on Sunday across New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and western Labrador, according to Environment Canada.

“It is unusual in the sense that we’re not used to seeing these summer-like conditions this late in the month,” said Ross Hull, Global News meteorologist.

“It can happen, but this is certainly taking it to the extreme.”
