The weather this week has been a rollercoaster of both winter and spring conditions. After a few days of slightly warmer temperatures, Quebec was once again hit by an arctic blast. The beginning of March definitely hasn't been the kindest to us in terms of more forgiving weather, especially with the news of another storm arriving this Sunday in some areas.
Luckily, there is some good news coming our way. Environment Canada has announced that starting next week, winter temperatures will be stepping aside for more mild, spring-like temperatures. In some regions of the province, we might even be seeing temperatures as warm as 10°C and 15°C, according to The Weather Network.

In addition to your change in wardrobe, you might want to include a pair of rain boots and an umbrella, as the warming temperatures will be accompanied by rain. The Weather Network confirmed that the combination of warmth and rain is perfect for melting snow and ice. So, you might want to stay tuned for any flood warnings, or at least inundated streets and water-filled potholes, across Quebec over the course of next week.
The super warm temperatures will last for a few days before the weather goes back to temperatures normal for the season. Stay tuned for any more weather updates.
