Central Canada is experiencing an unusual pattern of quick-moving weather systems, which will bring dramatic temperature swings and heavy snowfall to the Sault region. Winds will be a major factor, causing visibility issues on Monday. Be prepared for a roller coaster of temperatures throughout the week.
An unusual pattern of fast-moving weather systems is in place across Central Canada and will cause drastic weather changes and events in the Sault region during the coming workweek. Strong winds are often a result of this weather pattern, and we will certainly see that on Monday, only light snow will be blown around by the wind, which will cause visibility issues. Temperatures bounce around dramatically towards the end of the week, but it should come with only a dusting of snow.
Gusty southwest winds over 50km/h bring warmer air into the region on Monday and another 3-8cm of new snow. Daytime highs should climb to -1°C in the afternoon before the wind shifts to the northwest wind to bring much colder air into the region overnight. Sunshine Tuesday morning will quickly give way to cloud cover and another 5-10cm of snow later in the day as temperatures only reach -7°C. Wednesday will be partly cloudy with daytime highs of -8°C. Warmer air surges back into the region on Thursday, bringing a mix of sun and clouds and a slight chance of light snow as temperatures climb to near +1°C. Colder air returns on Friday under partly cloudy skies as daytime highs fall to -4°C
