Check the live conditions above for your region before heading out — a mixed pattern of late-winter snow and early spring thaw is spreading across much of Canada today, with the greatest impacts along the Great Lakes and coastal British Columbia.
What is driving today’s weather pattern?
A low-pressure system tracking east of the Rockies is pulling mild air northward, while a second system off the Pacific coast keeps a wet, cooler regime over British Columbia. The collision of these systems means residents from the eastern Prairies through southern Ontario and Quebec can expect a slushy mix of snow and rain this afternoon. For the latest details on watches and advisories, check our weather warning hub.
How do today’s conditions vary by region?
British Columbia — the Lower Mainland sees steady rain with mountain snow above 800 metres; travel through the Coquihalla and Sea-to-Sky corridors may be affected. Prairies — southern Alberta and Saskatchewan enjoy a brief warm spell before the next front arrives tonight. Ontario — the Weather Today page shows the GTA and Ottawa facing a messy afternoon commute with wet snow and gusty winds. Atlantic Canada — cooler than normal with lake-effect flurries lingering near the Fundy coast.
