Rainy western Quebec Wednesday
There is also a rainfall warning for the eastern Outaouais Tuesday evening through Wednesday.
The warning, which roughly starts east of Shawville, calls for up to 40 millimetres of rain that may pool on frozen ground. Thursday’s return to more seasonal temperatures could quickly freeze that water and there could be a few centimetres of snow atop all that.
Gatineau was –3 C at 6 a.m., then forecast to get to 5 C Tuesday, stay above zero overnight and peak at 4 C Wednesday before dropping Thursday, particularly Thursday night.
It’s a similar outlook for Maniwaki, albiet with a colder Wednesday night.
