But we’re still looking at some potential snow at the tail end of the weekend, with a 70 per cent chance of rain showers or flurries Sunday during the day, with a high of 4 C, and a 60 per cent chance of flurries overnight Sunday with a low of -4 C.

That’s expected to move into a sunny Monday with a high of -3 C and a low of -6 C before the clouds start to mix in with the sun on Tuesday. We’ll see slightly increased temperatures at that point, with a high of -1 C on Tuesday and a low of -7 C overnight, with a 60 per cent chance of flurries – a chance that will continue into Wednesday, when we’ll see a high of 0 C.

Currently, visibility is 32 kilometres.
