Environment Canada is warning residents in the Deep River and Madawaska area of a sudden freeze Wednesday afternoon.<\/p>\n

The flash freeze warning west of Barry’s Bay and Pembroke is yellow on Environment Canada’s three-colour scale<\/a>, meaning forecasters expect a moderate impact.<\/p>\n

A snow squall watch was in effect for western Quebec until mid-afternoon.<\/p>\n

There is a separate special weather statement for western Quebec about the possibility of a windy, rainy Friday and Saturday.<\/p>\n

No weather alerts have been issued for Ottawa or communities to its south and east.<\/p>\n

The capital reached its forecasted high of 3 C late Wednesday morning, with a 30 per cent chance of showers until 5 or 6 p.m.<\/p>\n

Around that time the temperature is expected to start dropping to an overnight low of \u201311 C before returning to around 4 C Thursday and Friday. Rain is expected Thursday night.<\/p>\n
