Canadians have been feeling the September chill coming through, but there may still be time yet for the coats to be unpacked.<\/p>\n
A cold front has been spreading across Canada, but according to one expert there may be a few more warm days left in 2025. <\/p>\n
This brief cold snap is a typical weather pattern, before a brief return of sunny days said CTV News\u2019 meteorologist Kelsey McEwen.<\/p>\n
McEwan called it an \u201cold fashioned tug of war between seasons,\u201d and said it\u2019s neither unusual, nor climate change.<\/p>\n
Ontario and Quebec have been feeling especially cool this season, McEwen said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe had large areas of low pressure higher up in the atmosphere that were propagating through, or moving through our area,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
McEwen said that the jet stream – the source of the cold, would move briefly move south, giving colder air a chance to clear out. <\/p>\n
The cold air usually heads north, up to the northern prairies and the territories, through Hudson\u2019s Bay. As the jet stream moves north, more sunny days can be expected, McEwen said. <\/p>\n
She said that the cold stream will move through Windsor, towards Ottawa, then Montreal, and Quebec City.<\/p>\n
After seeing lows of up to 18 C, Canadians can expect warmer days to make a comeback, with temperatures rising to 26 C-27 C next week, accoridng to McEwen.<\/p>\n
She called it the \u201clast gasp of summer a penultimate moment.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u2018A real transition season\u2019<\/p>\n
For communities north of Lake Superior the contrast can be felt even more strongly, McEwan added. The cold can be felt in those places, where frost advisories have become \u201calmost regular.\u201d<\/p>\n
The clear skies open the door for bright, sunny days but chilly frost bitten nights, McEwen said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat clear sky overnight (is) almost like you lose your blankets while you\u2019re sleeping, leading to frost overnight,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
She called fall \u201ca real transition season,\u201d because \u201cmeteorologically speaking, so much can change.\u201d<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, on Friday, much of Alberta and Saskatchewan sat comfortably in the 20s, along with south east and north west Ontario. <\/p>\n
A week ahead, Sept. 19 shows those warm patches dropping off, with most of the interior of the country and the southern parts of the Maritimes having temperatures between 10 and 20 C, according to Natural Resources Canada<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Canadians have been feeling the September chill coming through, but there may still be time yet for the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":139908,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[712,49,48,44],"class_list":{"0":"post-139907","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-canada","8":"tag-apple-news","9":"tag-ca","10":"tag-canada","11":"tag-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/139907","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=139907"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/139907\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/139908"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=139907"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=139907"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=139907"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
