Periods of snow are expected for Montreal this week — similar to what the city woke up to on Monday morning, with snowflakes falling from the sky.
About 2 centimeters of snow is expected to cover Montreal today, according to Environment Canada — with a high of -2 degrees, feeling more like -8 with the wind chill.
The periods of snow are set to continue in the evening and into Tuesday.
The weather agency forecasting another 2cm for tomorrow — with winds of 20 km/h gusting to 40. Temperature steady near -3.
This – as Montreal launches it’s second snow removal operation of the season tomorrow morning – in all boroughs.
Nearly 3,000 workers and 2,500 snow removal vehicles will be involved in loading operations.
