Good morning! This is your weather for Thursday, January 11th, 2024, for the beautiful city of Montreal. Whether you're gearing up for a day at work or just getting cozy at home, I've got all the chilly details for you.
As you peek out of the window this morning, you'll notice that the city is draped in a light blanket of snow, with temperatures hovering around a crisp negative 7 degrees. It's a bit like living in a snowglobe, isn't it? The high for the day will be just a touch less frosty at negative 4 degrees, so not a huge swing in temperatures today.
The wind is coming from the west-southwest at about 8 kilometers per hour, with gusts that could reach up to 15 kilometers per hour, so it might feel even cooler than it actually is. Make sure to wrap up warm if you're heading out, and maybe add an extra layer just in case.
Clouds are going to be pretty much the norm today, with a 93 percent cloud cover, so don't expect much in the way of sunshine. The light snow will be adding a bit of charm to the cityscape, though with less than a millimeter of accumulation, it's really just a light dusting, barely enough to warrant breaking out the shovel.
As we move into the evening, it's going to stay fairly steady with temperatures just a hair warmer at negative 6 degrees, so if you're planning a quiet evening walk through Old Montreal, those snowflakes gently falling might just make it magical.
Overall, it’s a classic Montreal winter day, so why not embrace it? Maybe grab a hot poutine on your lunch break to keep warm, or enjoy a hot chocolate by the fire in the evening.
And as you go about your day, just remember to bundle up and take it easy on those potentially slippery sidewalks. Check in again tomorrow for the latest forecast, as I'll be here to make sure you step out with your best foot forward.
