montreal march temperature

Monday's frigid temperatures might be wintry weather's last frosty gasp. Montreal weather forecasts from The Weather Network and Environment Canada show daytime highs above five degrees for the next two weeks — and even some double-digit positive temperatures.

The federal weather agency, for its part, shows the weather gradually improving through the week. While Montrealers woke up to a fresh dusting of snow and a windchill approaching -19, it looks like things will be slightly milder on Tuesday and Wednesday, when temperatures could peak at -2 C and 2 C, respectively.

Oh, you thought that double-digit positive temperatures meant we had finally turned a corner? Hahaha. No. MétéoMédia and Environment Canada Montreal weather forecasts show a possibility for even more snowfall this weekend, Saturday, March 19, and Sunday, March 20.

Canada's border rules are relaxing and the advisory against non-essential travel is over, so this might just be the time to flee to warmer locales. The Montreal weather forecast shows a roller coaster of a week ahead — possibly portending the arrival of spring, but annoying nonetheless.

Environment Canada says 5 to 10 centimetres will fall on the region on Tuesday as temps inch no higher than minus 5 degrees. With the wind chill, it'll feel about minus 12.

February's weather was... extra. We had snow. We had freezing rain. We had regular rain. Heck, we even had fog — remember that? Luckily, the month ahead is looking to be way more basic. Here's what to expect from Montreal weather in March.

On average, the Island of Montreal and the surrounding areas saw 55 centimetres of snow come down this month, according to Environment Canada meteorologist André Cantin. We had 49 millimetres of rain, which was a lot — the average for February is only 20.9 millimetres. Despite some truly frigid days, the average temperature for the month was -7.5 C, which is actually above the typical average of -7.7 C.
