A strong low pressure system is on the radar. This disturbance from Colorado is filled with moisture from the Gulf of Mexico. This risks opening the door to warm air interacting with arctic air planted firmly in the north of the continent. This difference in temperatures fuels the depression and promotes the presence of strong winds.
Heavy rainfall
The risk of rain is high in southern Quebec, while areas as far north as Abitibi-Témiscamingue and Côte-Nord are likely to see good amounts of snow. However, according to current forecasts, the trajectory of its low pressure center will increase near James Bay. This means that light air can settle far to the north, so rain can fall in many areas.
At present, it is difficult to accurately predict the nature and distribution of precipitation. However, in any case, they should be abundant. The situation will evolve and be monitored over the next few days.
Behind this disturbance, snowflakes can fall over the entire terrain.
strong winds
Wind gusts of up to 80 kmph are expected in the St. Lawrence Valley. Gusts of 100 km/h are possible in eastern Quebec, especially on the Magdalen Islands.
If they occur, such winds can cause power outages and property damage.
