While parts of Canada can expect warmer-than-normal temperatures, winter storms are brewing elsewhere that could dump up to 25 centimetres of snow, according to the latest forecasts.
Wondering about this week's forecast? Depending on where you live, it's a bit of a mixed bag.
Snow and cold will set in some provinces, while others will experience brief above-seasonal temperatures, said CTV Your Morning's meteorologist Kelsey McEwen.
In places like southwest Ontario, temperatures hit the double digits, with Toronto getting a dose of 14 C weather on Wednesday—but residents are in for a bit of a rollercoaster this week.
Ahead of the balmy weather, an Environment Canada advisory was issued in Ontario Monday morning, with five to 10 centimetres of snow possible in some areas.
Snowfall is expected to last through late morning and afternoon depending on the area, according to Environment Canada’s weather alert.
Due to high snowfall rates, most of the snowfall accumulation may fall within a couple of hours, the weather agency said. Reduced visibility in heavy snow is expected.
After that, McEwen said, a mid-week storm is expected in Ontario and Quebec, bringing wet and thunderstorm-like conditions and warm temperatures.
