Canada braces for a chilly November weekend, as winter creeps in

A strong cold front and an upper trough are driving Arctic air south, causing temperatures 5 to 7 degrees below average and early snowfall in southern and central Canada.

  • By the weekend, Environment Canada shows temperatures shifting toward an early winter pattern, prompting Canadians to dig out winter jackets early this year.
  • A large upper trough allows the jet stream to dip down the Gulf of Mexico, while a strong cold front ushers Arctic air south, creating a `perfect recipe` for cold outbreaks.
  • Forecasters expect Toronto's daytime high on Sunday around 3 °C versus a 9 °C average, with temperatures struggling to reach 4 °C and a 60 per cent chance of rain or flurries.
  • Manitoba officials warn daytime highs may dip below freezing Saturday, while Ontario cities including Toronto, London and Windsor could see their first snowflakes late Saturday into early Sunday.
  • Meteorologists note temperatures trending below seasonal averages could make this one of the colder Novembers in recent years, following earlier snowfalls and a February 2025 storm dumping more than 50 cm.
