Montreal was hit with light snow overnight and into the morning, a sign that winter weather remains in late March.
Environment Canada forecasted close to 5 cm, but in parts of the city just a thin layer was seen covering sidewalks, parked vehicles and properties.
The temperature mid-morning was hovering around -5°C, but it felt like -13°C with the windchill.
The forecast tonight calls for increasing cloudiness near midnight with similar temperatures, a low of -5°C, wind chill -13°C.
Environment Canada has put out a freezing rain warning for Sunday, about 5 to 10 mm are expected.
They add that surfaces such as walkways, roads and parking lots may become icy and slippery, and that ice build-up may cause tree branches to break.
Environment Canada is also asking drivers to be prepared to adjust their driving with changing road conditions.
